Couples From All Over The World Re-Enact Kiss At The End Of WWII Friday Aug 14,2015

 

With a countdown of "five, four, three, two, one, smooch," couples from across the world puckered up in Times Square on Friday Aug 14,2015 to mark the 70th anniversary of the famous kiss celebrating the end of World War II.

A 25-foot sculpture depicting Alfred Eisenstaedt's photograph of a sailor kissing a white-uniformed nurse towered over the commemoration of V-J Day, when Japan's surrender to Allied forces was announced.

Ray and Ellie Williams, Navy veterans who married the day after V-J Day, kicked off the anniversary of the kiss Aug. 14, 1945.
