Not to mention the famous photo of the sailor who grabbed a nurse and bent her over backwards to give her a smooch in his enthusiasm. People were dancing in the streets, just like we will be when trump kicks the bucket.

It was the end of the Vietnam War we didn’t celebrate, you orange idiot. But then, you are such a sucker and loser you can’t tell one war from another, and put Whiskey Pete in charge of the Pentagon.
