Stories for You
Pat Tillman
Featured for this Week

Arizona Cardinals safety Pat Tillman shattered the illusion of the football player as a "warrior" and made it a reality when he announced his intention to join the United States Army 20 years ago, in May of 2002, putting his NFL career on hold.

Tillman’s story goes back to the journey of sports athletes from over 50 years ago: sacrificing time at play for the very serious business of defending the country. These days, their sacrifice cuts deeper, as they forgo millions of dollars in salary, bonuses and endorsements. Like so many predecessors of previous generations, this professional athlete saw the value of such a tradeoff.

Next Sunday is the 77th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, popularly known as "VE Day." It represents the victory of the Allied forces, led by our American G.I. 's, over Nazism and the final end of the war in Europe. Celebrations erupted around the world. The nearly six year war had cost the lives of millions; destroyed homes, families, and cities; and brought huge suffering to the populations of entire countries.

Several months later, VJ Day was declared with victory over Japan, and peace was at hand.

Eighty Years On: Honoring the Legacy of WWII and the Enduring Mission of WeSalute

 It's almost time to commemorate a monumental moment in history: the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. While Victory in Europe (V-E Day) was observed on May 8, 2025, the formal end of WWII, known as Victory over Japan (V-J Day), is recognized on August 15 - the formal surrender by Japan to Allied forces -, and once again on September 2 when the surrender documents were officially signed aboard the USS Missouri.
