        I think Trump has purchased the ownership rights to that pageant.

        100% Agree with your comment. I will add that Japan refused surrender. My dad was to be part of massive Japan invasion. Likely he & tens of thousands on both sides (& civilians) would’ve died. Just taking Iwo Jima was a bloodbath. Two horrible choices for Truman

        I understand, I think my uncle was supposed to be part of the same invasion. The photo is weirdly American and part of our culture we cannot forget.
