More Celebrations

August 15, 1945, Appleton Post-Crescent

Such a big, momentous event demands more newspaper coverage, so here's the Post-Crescent's take on the end of the war as it pertained to the Twin Cities.  Overall, Neenah and Menasha did very well as far as orderliness was concerned.  Unlike the disastrous celebrations one hears about after a Stanley Cup victory or an NBA championship in some bigger burgs, the citizens let decorum rule the day, not allowing their excitement to overtake common sense.
