The war in the Far East ended 50 years ago today. This special documentary pays homage to the men and women who were in the Far East when the war against the Japanese ended on 15 August 1945. We hear from those who came home from the war, those who fought, those who were POWs, the nurses who tended them on release, and the families who waited at home for word of their loved ones.
They speak frankly of their experiences and the scenes they witnessed. Producer Maura Clarke
