Welcome to a new podcast series where we revisit some of our most riveting and educational discussions on World War II. This episode, titled Victory in Europe: One Year Later, is brought to you by the Jenny Craig’s Institute for War and Democracy at The National WWII Museum.

Today, we are taking a visit back to May 7, 2021, when Dr. Rob Citino, the Samuel Zemurray Stone Senior Historian at The National WWII Museum, sat down with Jeremy Collins, the Director of Conferences and Symposia, for the commemoration of V-E Day. By May 7, 1946-a year after the Germans surrendered in Reims to the Allied forces-what had changed in Europe? How was the Allies’ relationship with the Soviet Union? Citino and Collins discussed this and much more.

I was a primary school pupil in 1946 in the City of London. I read newspaper headlines but did not understand much, of course...So thanks for this

While I have heard much about WWII and the years leading up to it, I haven’t heard much about the time after it ended. Thanks so much for this enlightening conversation!

Post-war was the Marshall Plan.

As always, Dr. Citino's talks are informative an̈d personable.

Let's not sugar coat. Nazis had to be defeated, they were maniacs. But they were also much admired and that led to their easy integration and post war Marshall plan and German reconstruction.

The Nazis def needed defeated. Unfortunately, there is an argument that the communists were comparably bad.

It's certainly true that the Soviet Union suffered a lot in WW2. But we also shouldn't forget that they enabled/ started the war in Europe to a large degree. It could be argued that the SU was the major winner of the war.

Soviets and us Yanks definitely came out on top.

I collect old passports, especially World War II related, and I have at least 2 UNRRA workers passports from the US, as well as a court reporter from Washington state who, by the way became the first woman prosecutor in Washington state after the war who assisted one of the judges at Nuremberg. I also have Bertold Brect ex wife’s Austrian passport from the 1950s. Germany had no independent travel document until 1951! They used a travel permit released by the AHMG and used AMG stamps countersigned by military commission
