Today we honor the 81st Anniversary of V-E Day — Victory in Europe Day — marking the end of World War II in Europe on May 8, 1945.

We remember the courage, sacrifice, and determination of the Greatest Generation who fought to defend freedom across the world. Their bravery and service changed history and secured the liberties we enjoy today.

The Duryea American Legion proudly salutes all veterans, especially our World War II heroes, whose legacy continues to inspire future generations.

Freedom is never free.
