And now they're one of our closest allies. Crazy how time changes things.
Doc Holliday theyre not even in nato
Storm erZ They're still our biggest ally in the Asia region. We have SoFA status with them. I would know because I was stationed in Japan for 2 years.
Sadeth Cheng sofa isnt anything near NATO, maybe allies in asia (theres also south korea), but definitely not biggest allies in general, not even allies maybe, just friendly relations and good cooperators. In nato both countries keep military personnel in each others countries/base, both work together in exercises, plan theoretical war theaters, everyone has to spend a minimum of their GDP % of defense (in theory...), it's defensive alliance, technology cooperation etc... those are allies
Storm erZ Well, we constantly house personnel from the Japanese Ground Defense Force in our baseson Okinawa. We do several annual field exercise with them every year.
Storm have you ever served with the Japanese? I have and am right now, ive been here for a year and the relationship we have with them is strong.
my grandfather was in the boat next to that boat
cool
Ben Harder God bless
My grandfather was next to the boat that was next to *that* boat.
My grandfather used to walk 10 miles everyday to school in the snow without shoes. I think grandparents lie a lot.
I'm sorry to hear that Ben, he must have had many stories
The US navy also brought in the tallest sailors in the fleet to be on the Missouri that day. The Japanese had to walk down the deck surrounded by guys 6'3" and up..
When did that come in? Because I was considering joining over a decade ago (got puberty extremely young and in 3 distinct phases. Lets just say I was 20 when I was able to grow a beard, I was 13 before I was over 5 foot, and if the lights were off, I pass as a man's man in every way by the age of 8) and I was told that if I grew another inch I'd be turned away. Maybe my brain got freaked out or something because I never grew another centimetre over 6 feet.
@@Zenon0K that’s pretty normal growth , I know a kid 15 years old and already has a full beard

That's a pretty typical thing to do for all sorts of military powers all over the world, especially for ceremonial units proper height is one of the primary qualifications.

Side effects of nuclear attack also include massive productions of technology and anime.
Juguz Jota Pe they have to release that rage somehow since they can't go to war
Juguz Jota Pe it’s cuz they went brain dead and started making anime
Juguz Jota Pe lol shows how much you know
The reason technology in Japan advanced so much is because their military was liquidised and the wealth was taken from the rich and distributed amongst the populace. Without a military to maintain, an abundance of wealth and no need to worry about their national security thanks to their new guard dogs, Japan could focus on development which is why they've advanced so far now.
And their anime? lol, America has cartoons as well. What's so weird about that?
It just so happens that anime became so popular overseas, that the industry flourished.
Just look at all the Weeaboos who desperately want to be Japanese. xD
Kaiza the joke
your head
Kaiza While what you said is quite true. I'm pretty sure the OP only meant it as a joke.
To the OP-> Haha! Good one!
and then anime began
japan said "well i cant take over the world fuck it anime lets go"
GamingLover43
Philippines had nothing to do with this buddy
and Weeaboism
Philippines did help because they are a colony of US that time. Most of the resistance remained in the Islands are filipino guerrillas and others joined the US military that were deployed in japan. so it's basically Filipinos, Americans and other allies like Russians and British did help a bit in that world war II in pacific

man imagine that sight of 1500 planes flying across Tokyo bay. It really shows both people and military that there was no way for Japan to win.
That was good. Even after two atomic bombs, the Army tried to actually kidnap the emperor to keep him from broadcasting an order to surrender. Incredible.
@@KenJackson_US Considering how many men they lost it China. It shouldnt be a surprised that the military wanted to continue fighting. Sure the civilian were dying in the hundreds of thousands from starvation to bombing but majority of the Army in Japan were still intact.

@@notme8652 They just lost WW2, how much pride do they have left.
@@nicholascarr6251 remember they were extremely honorable and would fight to the last men, willing to carry out kamikaze attacks so yes it's a surprise to you but not really when you see how much they honored death over surrender
When I was in the US Army, we did a month-long training exercise with the Japanese army in Yakima Washington. They are some of the kindest people I have ever met. They were nothing but respectful and honorable.
That’s because after their actions in WW2 they realized that their hopes of expansion were just impossible. They also realized that they caused a lot of unnecessary bloodshed. They’re a small island nation that are surrounded by superpowers and superpower controlled territories. So instead of putting all their efforts into military expansion and technology, they put it into public technology. That’s why today, they have crazy cool technology. Here in the US I think the military is about 10-15 years ahead of the general public. I can be wrong on that number. I’ve heard it being even near 20-30 years ahead. Things like Face ID and fingerprint scanning or drones. Today that’s a common thing on devices and go into any electronic store and you’ll see tons of drones. There’s testimony of people saying the government had that technology in the 60’s and 70’s.
Japan doesn't have an army...

1500 planes must have been an awesome flyby, an awakening display of power, holy shit imagine experiencing the end of such a bloody war, they must have gotten drunk on another level during that celebration
No its a great display of the power of their government not their people. The only reason Japan surrendered to America was because it'd rather become a Democracy than turned into a pig and slimey Soviet state. A lot of Japanese didn't want to fight yet its either that or have you and your entire killed and turned into soap.
wheelmanstan 7 American soldiers were killed by falling bullets from others firing their guns into the air to celebrate that the war was over.

Most of us will go our entire lives without experiencing such an intense array of emotions as those soldiers and sailors probably felt at that moment.

Assault weapons are far worse than any nuclear weapon.

its hard to screw up a surrender, isnt it
What is a perfect surrender?
Yeah because forgive the emperor murders it's pretty perfectly
Can't imagine how embarrass Japanese to signing that agreement of surrender
I don't think they're THAT embarrassed. The Japanese highly regard honor as part of their culture. There is no honor in someone who can't accept his/her defeat. You accept your defeat and move forward.
@@_spooT The Japanese have a different concept of honour which is more akin to win at all costs
@@_spooT I implore you that if you think that they had a similar sense of honour to the west, Why do you think they did all their war crimes and their refusal to surrender during the pacific island campaign where no Japanese unit had surrendered until the Emperor did? Why do you think they used Kamikaze attacks to try and disrupt the Americans? Why did they suicidally charge at American Lines?
The Japanese Honour system is more like trying to honour your family by doing good deeds, you do not fail as that would shame your family's name. I don't need to be told by the Japanese of old and the present as you say, though they probably would've said that honouring your family was the most important thing.

What happened was really a tragic part of history, and the scars never left the veterans and us their families.
Fun fact : Canada signed on the wrong line so everyone had to re-write their country and the declaration was a mess

...seriously?
@@myczxr yea, just search "Canada sign in the wrong spot" and you will find it.
Canada was the first country to declare war on Japan, one day before the U.S.
@@jeffdelaney8934 yeah, Canada was nasty in the war
I like that we had thousands of aircraft flying over. That kind of showed the Japanese what they'd have faced had they continued the war. By that time, the Japanese naval and air forces were nearly completely destroyed.
Oh yeah. But the Japanese were crazy, not even the firebombing and two atomic bombs were enough to make them surrender, it was the Russian Army at their backs.
wheelmanstan
nope, it was definitely the bombs
the Japanese had instilled such fervor and passion into their soldiers and people that they'd rather kill themselves than die from americans
they would've gladly fought the russians in a heartbeat. Maybe it was a contributing factor to their surrender but the bombs were undoubtably why they surrendered.
The Japanese started the withhdrawl of troops days after the bombs were dropped
thats not at all true. they major generals and leaders didnt care enough about the bombings to even have a meeting about it. there had already been numerous cases where 80-90+% of cities were destroyed in one night by firebombing and this had been happening all over the country. it was only news of the fact that the soviets didnt want peace negotiations that finally led to them surrendering to us, so they wouldnt get invaded by the red army.
One of the main reasons why Japan surrendered was because of the advancing Russians. They were actually more scared of the Russians.
Ay re the US committed the most war crimes.
I'm a Filipino and it horrifies me whenever my dad used to tell stories about what happened during World War 2.

Amazing to think this battleship was still used in combat almost 50 years later in Desert Storm.
Fun fact: The Japanese guy is limping because a Korean independence activist threw a bomb at him during a failed assassination attempt.
Apparently during the 2008 financial crisis. When the Banks and AIG were about to go under. The Russians came to the Japanese with a proposition. Both owned very large stakes in AIG. The Russians asked the Japanese if they would agree to dump all their shares in AIG simultaneously. It would have been the final nail in AIGs coffin. This would likely have caused a total economic collapse. The effects would have been absolute chaos and anarchy around the globe. But, the Japanese politely told them no.
Crazy how things change. Japan was given a second chance to essentially start a world war. Along side Russia and China to wreak havoc on the US. And yet they declined. Glad to have you on our side Japan! Thank you and God bless.
Probably because they knew how it would end (nuclear war). No one wins. Glad they are our friend too
It's because the northern-most Japanese home islands are still held by Russia; and they knew what would happen to them if they ever turned their backs on China for all the Japanese enslavement of China. 75 year later and they're still digging up drums of biological weapons that the Japanese had been developing and testing on Chinese and Allied prisoners.
Roger Wilco kinda true with all countries and races really. Crazy though
It would not have caused economic collapse. It would have create a great economic turmoil but not collapse.

How do you know what would happen if it never did? We see the Axis as "bad guys" but read some more history dude...what the Allies did wasn't clean either. You never know until it happens.
Rogue Channel The axis came in looking for land to take over, the allies came in looking for nation's to defend, prehaps it's not just good guys Vs bad guys, but you can't deny the axis had no intention of preserving hostile nation's
+Rogue Channel Oh yeah the Axis be super fair. Just look at how they did it with France, their generals walked around in paris, doing the closest thing politicians/government officials do to bragging.
They even forced them to sign the treaty in the SAME train car on the SAME track in the SAME place that France made them sign the armistice in ww1?
The allies weren't as good as everyone said they were but they'd never do anything close to that (Except maybe Stalin)

@Vsatyk film rolls back then, even the ones carried by war filmographers lasted at least a couple minutes per roll. It's just that modern editing (and our low attention spams) mean that most shots we see were only a few seconds long from cut to cut. There's plenty of uncut footage of ww2 to scour with.
I have seen footage somewhere and it looked far more impressive than that.
My neighbor across the street growing up was aboard the USS Missouri and watched the Japanese government surrender. I think I know now why he always had a smile on his face.
That was awesome thank you to whoever made that.
Fantastic! This was supposed black and white, but the modern graphic system has made it more colorful.

You got 3 choices:
1) Soviet Communism
2) Mao Communism
3) Italian Plummer-ism
Crazy to think wars can end by signing pieces of paper.
Wars also start by signing a single document, Declaration of War
This changed the course of history in ways unimaginable
Would have loved to see more of that airshow
Japan: the world is mine.
States: *drops 2 abombs*
Japan: sorry, we'll just make ps5, switch and anime from now on.
Those Air Force men flying overhead must have all felt like Top Gun that day. God bless America
No U.S. Air Force then, only Army Air Corps or Naval aviators then. The Air Force as a separate branch came a few years later (1947) and even later the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado (1954).
I feel like I would’ve enjoyed vlogs from this time period.
My great uncle was an Army Engineer stationed in the pacific. Only picture i saw was him shirtless on a bulldozer smoking a cigarette, legendary
American ships rlly pulled up to Tokyo like “try somethin... I DARE YA..”
Fun fact: the Canadian signature of the surrender document was misplaced, Colonel Lawrence Moore (who had one working eye) signed on the wrong line & forced everyone else to follow suit... When the Japanese reviewed there were quick edits made to ensure its validity. Whole WW2 peace almost got accidentally botched!
What would Japan do in that situation, forfeiit the surrender and declare war again ? hhaha
This copy is still visible on the Missouri
Didn't Trump do this on pretty much everything he signed?
eyescreamcake just trying to have a nice comment read. SO SHUT UP ABOUT POLITICS!!
@@eyescreamcake yawn
My grandfather lost his one eye during world war two he said he was hit buy an airplane gunner, so happy i was able to meet my grandpa when i was a kid. He is in heaven now🙏
I worked with a guy at Vassar College who was on the Missouri at the surrender. He said that every bit of the ship was polished, every man had to be inspected very closely to look perfect for the newsreels. Joe Dana was his name and I knew him between 1980 and 1991. Nice guy, he did the upholstery in an old car I still have.
Where do I sign to stop nuke number 3?
they actually only surrendered when russia started a land offensive
I have been on this ship at Pearl Harbor where you can still see it today and the paper that was signed.
I stood right where this was signed. It was really amazing.
Same. I was the boat
I knew a yeoman holding a camera! Thanks for your service Brooks Marlar!!! (And all you other gents too!)
I’d like to point out a random fact about the signing. The Canadian dignitary signed the wrong line, he accidentally signed the French line.
Edit: I can’t spell
How thoroughly embarrassing!
Maybe the Canadian dignitary was French Canadian.
There shouldn't have been a French line there in the first place.
@@strnbrg59 Why not?
Baguette?
