I wasn't alive when Paris was liberated (25 Aug. '44), but I sure would have loved to have been there. There was temporary but overwhelming joy in the midst of chaos and suffering. The war wasn't over by any means, but everyone could feel it would be.
This is what it feels like today.
All wars aren't fought on the battlefield.
