Chichester Commemorates 80th Anniversary of VJ Day
The sun shone brightly over the Litten Gardens cenotaph as Chichester came together to mark the 80th anniversary of Victory over Japan Day (VJ Day). The Mayor, members of the Armed Forces, and local residents gathered in solemn reflection to honor those who continued fighting in the Far East long after victory was declared in Europe.
