    Are the Government planning similar events for VJ as they have just done for VE?

    Thinks are frustratingly quiet on the subject of larger VJ Day events just now! I believe the RBL are planning something at the National Arboretum, as are the Cofepow organisation. Holding fire just now, so as not to jeopardise anything that might be forthcoming. Forgotten Army and all that!
