we also have a replica of one of mcarthur's pins. he used six pens to sign the documents which sounds a bit strange. he only had to sign is named twice, one on each copy. instead, he chose to use six pens. he did it for a simple reason and one we still do today if you look at lawmakers when they sign important laws. what he wanted to do afterwards was give these pens away as souvenirs. following the lasting nature, mccarthy stepped up to the microphone and simply said, these proceedings are closed. he gave a signal and above the missouri, over 1000 allied aircraft flew information. from the beginning of the ceremony to the end, 23 minutes long, that's all it took to end the bloodiest conflict in human history. at the end of the war, the united states would emerge as the world's first nuclear power. soon afterward, the soviet union would join the arms race which led to a protracted cold war with each country adding to their nuclear arsenals. in the united states, testing of these weapons would take place at a site just outside of las

on the morning of september 2nd, 1945, general douglas mcarthur supported by admiral -- , admiral -- and several other top american officers received -- aboard the flagship the uss missouri anchored in tokyo bay. two copies of the official terms of surrender were signed at a small table on the missouri's deck, by representatives by each wearing nation in this theater. this event officially marked the end of the war in the pacific. popularly known as victory over japan day or vj day. after years of bloody war and fighting, with the surrender of japan, the guns at left fell silent. with its last belligerent defeated, world war ii at long last came to the end. >> it 75 years since that vj day, oh do i remember it well even though is 75 years ago. no i wasn't overseas at the time i was in the army air corps base in florida but what a day it was. how we celebrated, and we are celebrating it again today. i do recall though all of us there went on to different ways and among as some of the things i did was writing books. one of them was a book of poetry, and one poem in it was a remembrance

when mcarthur wanted to go with him to the philippines in 1934, the man mcarthur picked for that tough eisenhower for his achievements, not political promises. americans know the essence of eisenhower, the statesman, the executive, the man. >> the american system rests on the rights and dignity of the individual. the success of that system depends on the assumption by each of personal, individual responsibility for others' safety and welfare of the whole. no citizen or soldier can assume your responsibilities, else democracy will cease to exist. a united and interment american -- and determined american citizenry is under god the mightiest force the world has seen. it can protect it self and lead the world to fight for justice and for peace. goodbye. good luck. >> out of uniform as president of columbia, eisenhower warned that communism must be fought on every front. >> in today's struggle, no free >> in today's struggle, no freeman, no free institution can be neutral. all must be joined in a common profession, that of democratic citizenship. there will be no administrative suppression

no i think mcarthur -- i think mcarthur one time wanted to drop the bomb in korea, who's getting heart up there. the bomb was an awful thing but if we didn't have bombs, will there be more wars now? we know that everybody's got a bomb admiral playing chicken with it, maybe it'll stop were somewhere by having bomb that are no. >> richard thank you. peter cosmic. >> yes, american public was told exactly what richard was saying that the bombs ended the war and saved lives. susan rice might be our next vice president, writer rhoden op-ed in the new york times the truman saved her father's life, that he was ready to be deployed to the pacific and that dropping the atomic bombs and in the war and force the japanese surrender. that is the mid. obama basically said the same thing when he was in her seema. world war ii reached its brutal and in hiroshima and nagasaki. 85% of the american people according to gallup poll and 1945 supported dropping the atomic bomb. a roper pull the came out after in 1945, said the 22.7% of the american people was the mare japanese had not surrenders so quickly so

. >> laura: pastor mcarthur kamala harris thinks that we'ree in world war ii. listen. >> this is not about punishmentt it's not about big brother. it's simply about saying what a leader says in times of crisis and this is -- you look at world war ii, the great depression. leaders said we each have to sacrifice for the sake of the nation and the collective. that's what this is about. >> laura: almost 500,000 americans died in world war ii trying to free europe from the grip of nazi germany. is that similar to what is happening now to somehow justify depriving people of their inalienable rights to assemble petition the government and to worship as a community? >> well, of course not. it's more than that, laura. the church preaches the gospel of jesus christ. jesus died and rose again and is the only source of eternal salvation. the church doesn't navigate and politicians whims. we're not concerned about the flu. we're concerned about eternity eternal life. salvation. the more dire circumstances become in the world around us the more critical, the more essential t

you mentioned mcarthur but what about the admirals, nimitz and halsey. were they briefed on what was going to happen before the bomb was dropped? did they have knowledge of that. >> go ahead, finish up. >> oppenheimer have a chance to talk to truman about what would go on if they dropped the bomb. >> several questions. when was the decision made to drop that first bomb. >> meeting may 25th, 1943, they decided japan would be the target not drmz. japan fled from nazi occupied europe and after the germans split the uranium at ohm they were very alarmed about the prospect of hitler developing an atomic bomb. they went to einstein and einstein got roosevelt's attention. he wrote the first of three letters urging u.s. begin a bomb project not to drop on japan but as a deterrent against the japanese bomb. the project gets around very slowly and doesn't really get momentum until 1942. the admirals and generals, some of them were briefed about the use of the atomic bomb. he mentioned hallsy and nimitz, both on record saying the atomic bombs were not necessary to

it also mentions that a copy has been sent to general mcarthur and a copy has been sent to admiral nimitz. this is the closest you are going to get for the actual orders of the dropping of the bond on hiroshima. that is updated the 25th of july. it does say after about august 3rd. it does give a date for that. at that point, they are waiting for a response from the potsdam declaration to the japanese. the other document that is often sometimes used incorrectly ought to talk about the authorization of the bomb, is this man. this is from the secretary of war to truman. it's a few days later. it's the 30th of july. this one is harder to read. some of these historic documents can be difficult to read. but if you close in on this one, this is from stimson to the president and he is talking about the recent ultimatum. that's the ultimatum that was made at potsdam, and the dramatic results of the test that we've heard about already. their suggestions made by the british which secretary of state burns is well aware. he's giving recommendations of what to do and i'm going to talk about the context

he says, in fact, general mcarthur sent bill ely to japan to check out the area.he was the first american in japan after the atom bombs, and he said the destruction was unbelievable, but what they had waiting for us, he says, was unbelievable too he said they had submarines, two-man subs, all kinds of fortifications, the civilians were all armed to their teeth waiting for the americans to invade. >> william, thanks for your call. mr. daniel? >> i've heard similar stories. i'm not familiar with the typhoon that william mentioned, but those are stories that i heard also from survivors that although -- there are some, of course, that feel japan wall street defeated and that it was only a matter of, i don't know, weeks, months, days before they surrender surrendered at the time they also talk about fighting with whatever they could. groups of civilians would be attached to groups of soldiers to fight side by side, so those stories resonate with me. they said at the same time the civilians were terrified. this is not something -- they trained for it, but this is not so
