These are some pictures after I had been on Saipan for over six months. There were about 45 Japanese men and officers that came out of the jungle to surrender. I think it had been negotiated for a short time before. We heard them the night before celebrating with sake, we think. I was at the Engineer Gas Generating Plant on that day. A man from our company gave me a set.

“Unconditional Surrender,” a 25-foot, 6,000 pound statue by artist J. Seward Johnson commemorating a famous World War II photo. The statue is a three-dimensional interpretation of a photo taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt of a Sailor kissing a nurse in Times Square, New York City on Aug. 14, 1945, following the announcement of V-J Day.
Unconditional Surrender is a bronze sculpture by Seward Johnson resembling a photograph by Victor Jorgensen, V–J day in New York City in 1945, situated in Tuna Harbor Park. Photographed along the waterfront in San Diego in California, USA.
I won a jelly roll of the block fabrics in a giveway so I made a quilt out of them, semi-crazy stitched it, and then gave it away on my blog.
We shine the light on whatever's worst
Tryna fix something
But you can't fix what you can't see
It's the soul that needs a surgery
We decided to have just a little bit more fun before leaving and improvised one more Imperial Arrest with Angie being the prisoner this time. This is about the only time you'll see a rebel in control of an imperial! ;)
Situated in Kampung Layang-Layangan, this spot has a great historical significance. At this very place on 10 September 1945 the Japanese Southern Army surrender to the 9th Division Australian Imperial Forces, which marked the end of World War II in Borneo.
During the Japanese occupation,Labuan was known as Maidashima or Maida Island. It was named after General Maida, the Chief Commander of the Japanese Force in Borneo.

The Fine People At Wikipeda have this to say about the original picture(s) this was based on.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%E2%80%93J_day_in_Times_Square
V–J day in Times Square, perhaps the most famous photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt, is of an American sailor kissing a young woman on V-J Day in Times Square on August 14, 1945, that was originally published in Life magazine. (The photograph is known under various names: V-J day in Times Square, V-Day, etc.[1])
Because Eisenstaedt was photographing rapidly changing events during the V-J celebrations he didn't get a chance to get names and details. The photograph does not clearly show the faces of either kisser and several people have laid claim to being the subjects. The photo was shot just south of 45th Street looking north from a location where Broadway and Seventh Avenue converge.

However it does seem this statute is based on another photo taken at the same time by a navy photographer. (from the same Wiki entry):
U.S. Navy photo journalist Victor Jorgensen captured another view of the same scene, which was published in the New York Times.[4] This photograph shows less of Times Square in the background and does not show the full body of either the sailor or the nurse. Unlike the Eisenstaedt photograph, this photograph is in the public domain (by virtue of being produced by a federal government employee on official position).
