Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

“Victory in Europe Day,” or V-E Day, for short, was when the Allies accepted Nazi Germany’s surrender.

“Victory over Japan Day,” or V-J Day, was when Japan unconditionally surrendered to the Allies.

V-E Day was May 8, 1945. It came after the Soviet Union’s armies overtook Berlin and Germany’s leader, Adolph Hitler (“Der Fuehrer”) took his own life.

V-J Day was August 14, 1945. It came after the United States dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese Cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
