Whereas World War II fundamentally reshaped the inter-
national geopolitical landscape, as well as the economic, 
political, and cultural institutions of the United States; 
Whereas World War II involved a clear choice between de-
mocracy and tyranny and involved the United States as 
a whole in a worldwide battle against the forces of fas-
cism and oppression; 
Whereas celebrations around the United States and the world 
reflected the overwhelming sense of relief and exhilara-
tion felt by those citizens of Allied nations at the end of 
World War II; and 
Whereas on the morning of September 2, 1945, Japan for-
mally surrendered on board the battleship USS Missouri: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate 
concurring), That Congress— 
(1) recognizes the 65th anniversary of the sur-
render of the Government of Japan and the end of 
World War II; and 
(2) honors the thousands of men and women of 
the United States Armed Forces who paid the ulti-
