While it was August 15, 1945, off the coast of Japan, it was still August 14th back in the United States when word of the Japanese surrender hit the news wires.<img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/968913_10153138320940174_1117793388_n.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> On August 14, 1945, sixty-eight years ago today, Americans received word of Japanese surrender. That month, the ship's newspaper published on board the carrier Shangri-La (CV 38) featured a cover photograph of sailors adding the final tally to the scoreboard on the flattop's island. The carrier's name was derived from Franklin D. Roosevelt's response when reporters asked him the location from which the B-25 bombers flown by the Doolittle Raiders took off to bomb Japan in April 1942. His answer was "Shangri-La," a fictional location in James Hilton's novel Lost Horizon, which was published in 1933.<img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/1097982_10153138290055174_1146226203_n.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> SB2C-5 Helldivers of Bombing Squadron (VB) 89 lined up for launch on the flight deck of the carrier Antietam (CV 36) on August 14, 1945, sixty-eight years ago today. Note how the starboard side of the flight deck is being used to spot aircraft while the Helldivers launch from the port side. Joining the Pacific Fleet too late for service in World War II, the carrier operated in the Far East during the period September 1945-August 1946.<img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/1406_10153138271860174_919696713_n.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> The SB2C reaches the end of the flight deck of Kearsarge (CV 33).<img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/972333_10153135175195174_631735879_n.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Kearsarge (CV 33) sailors look donw from the catwalk as the crew gets out of the cockpits of their ditched airplane.<img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/11183_10153135175190174_594571682_n.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> An F6F-5 Hellcat makes a landing on the deck of the carrier Monterey (CVL 26) during carrier qualifications in the Gulf of Mexico on August 15, 1953, sixty years ago today.<img src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1003067_10153141417200174_102104327_n.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
