Haverfordwest: County Hall lit for VJ Day

COUNTY HALL in Haverfordwest is illuminated in red, white, and blue on the eve of Victory over Japan Day (VJ Day) which is being marked today (August 15).

The gesture at the headquarters of Pembrokeshire County Council commemorates the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.

Said Pembrokeshire County Council Chairman, Dr Simon Hancock: “VJ Day marks a very important event in World War Two – the day Japan surrendered to the Allies after almost six years of war on 15th August 1945.”

The building will be lit again tonight and tomorrow night (Sunday, 16th August).
