Sacrifices of VJ Day heroes ‘shall never be forgotten’, King Charles says
King Charles will promise that the service and sacrifice of the Second World War Hero who fought and died in the Pacific and Far East will never be forgotten.
Speaking with an voice message before the 80th anniversary of the VJ Day, Charles will think about the horror of the prisoners of war and the innocent civilians of the occupied lands in the region, reminding us that the real cost of the war extends beyond the war areas, it touches every aspect of life ”.
On August 15, the VJ day points to the anniversary of Japan’s surrender to allies following the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, and effectively ends the Second World War.
At the beginning of this month, the six -minute conversation in the morning room in Clarence House reflects and references the historical sound broadcast made by Charles’ grandfather King George VI.
Monarch will explain how the heroes of VJ day have given us more than freedom, how they can protect us and leave the example of how they should be protected, and victory was made possible in close cooperation with “great distances, beliefs and cultural distinctions”.
Charles will say that it shows that it is “during war and times of peace, not all the biggest weapons you carry, not the arms you carry, but the weapons you tie”.
The service and sacrifice of veterans and those who lost their lives in conflict will be “never forgotten”.
The message will be published at 7.30 in the morning before a commemoration service attended by the King and Queen, the Veterans of the Second World War and the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at the National Memorial Arboretum of Staffordshire.
Charles was depicted by squeezing his hands while sitting at his desk at Clarence House, London, and there was a microphone with an angled microphone as he was preparing to read his address.
The television service on Friday will pay tribute to those who work in the Asia-Pacific Theater, including live broadcasts by BBC, Burma Star buyers, British Indian Army veterans, former prisoners of war, and those who fight in important wars in India, including Kohima and Imphal.
The event, organized by the Royal British Legion with the government, will see that the king and his wife are separated from flower tribute, such as other senior figures.
A two -minute national silence will end with an air screen by red arrows, and the service will end with a flypast by the British Monument flight before the King and the queen joined a reception with the Second World War veterans.
