フランス共和国臨時政府
On 2 September 1945, the Japanese Instrument of Surrender was signed aboard "USS Missouri" by representatives from Japan, the United States, the Republic of China, the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, Australia, Canada, the Provisional Government of the French Republic, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the Dominion of New Zealand. Despite this, "W-8" did not receive notice of the end of the war until 15 September, thirteen days later, while docked at Surabaya.
