asia,history,japan,military,southeast asia,world,world war ii, The Second World War In The East (Cassell History of Warfare), If you're looking for an event that symbolizes what both unites and divides Britain and the United States, search no further than the Second World War. Britain and the U.S. fought on the same side, but as far as the British are concerned, the war started in 1939 and was, to all intents and Purposes, over in May 1945 with the fall of Berlin. The Americans see things a little differently. They reckon it started in 1941 with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor and ended in August 1945 with the atomic explosions at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

No one should ignore, either, the suffering of the British POWs in the Japanese labor camps. Yet the fact remains that for most Eurocentric Brits, the war in the Far East is largely a forgotten war. We remember the odd vivid image--Pearl Harbor, the raising of the U.S. flag on Iwo Jima, and the mushroom clouds over Japan--but that is just about it. So H.P.
