Question

Veterans something???

It's a question they asked him in school he's in second grade.

Answer 1

May 8, 1945 was the day when the Allies announced the surrender of German forces in Europe.

Victory in Europe

Answer 2

VE Day, V-Day means victory in europe when Germany surrendered.

Answer 3

In reality, Admiral Karl Doenitz, who took over as leader of Germany after Hitler, surrendered on May 7, 1945.  The news was announced to the world on May 8, and that's why May 8 is V-E (Victory in Europe) Day.  August 15 is the day Japan formally surrendered, which is V-J Day.  Hope this helps.
