Abstract:
The Allies were making plans to invade the Japanese main islands in late 1945 and spring 1946 when the Japanese government, following the dropping of the atomic bombs and the Soviet Union’s declaration of war on Japan, decided to bring the war to an end and the Emperor broadcast the decision on the radio on 15 August. On 27 August a fleet of Allied ships entered Tokyo Bay and the surrender ceremony took place on 2 September on board the battleship USS Missouri. On board the British battleship HMS King George V was a British naval officer who had learnt Japanese at the US Navy Japanese Language School: he acted as interpreter when a Japanese pilot came on board to guide the ship to its anchorage. Other surrender ceremonies took place in Hong Kong, Singapore and other places which had been captured by Japanese forces: on each occasion Allied linguists were present to act as interpreters.

Abstract:
Abstract The day of the dreadnought may have passed, but the individual ships lived on and on. Considering how it had begun, World War II proved to be something less of a debacle for battleships than might have been expected, but their role in the American Navy remained definitely a secondary one. After Midway-the first naval battle when the warships involved didn’t come within sight or gunshot of one another-it was utterly apparent that the carrier was the new capital ship. For their part, dreadnoughts would subsequently engage hostile surface-vessels only four times during the course of war, the high point coming when the new battleships Washington and South Dakota sank the Japanese Kirishima in November 1942 off Guadalcanal. However, battleships did prove useful for shore bombardment in support of amphibious operations, as antiaircraft platforms to protect carriers, and still less heroically as oilers. All in all, it was a modest but positive performance, although other, far .cheaper ships could have approximated most of these services, including shore fire mimicked by massed rocket barrages. Nonetheless, when the shooting stopped, it was a dreadnought that steamed into the spotlight at the moment of victory. For on 2 September 1945, Japanese representatives signed the instrument of surrender, not on the flight deck of a battle-scarred aircraft carrier, but aboard the dreadnought Missouri. Old loyalties die hard.
