This original Japs Quit newspaper stands as a remarkably preserved monument to the definitive conclusion of World War II. Published on August 14, 1945, this authentic “EXTRA” Special Victory Edition of the Sampson News was printed directly at the U.S. Naval Training Center in Sampson, New York, precisely as the historic victory over Japan Day VJ surrender announcement flashed across the globe.
