New Years Day in 1945 was pretty much "business as usual" during World War 2. Although the Allies were making substantial gains in their drive into Germany. The infamous Battle Of The Bulge that went on just before Christmas was now in the mopping up stages, with any gains the German Army made during that period of time now lost and regained by the Allies. And the war was continuing without let-up on all fronts.
But it was a general feeling that the war would be over sometime in 1945. At least it was hoped on this New Years day.
Here is the news for January 1, 1945 as reported on News Of The World over NBC.
Past Daily is trudging along and we're always looking for your help. We don't run ads so we need contributors to keep us up and running. Costs even more now than it did this time last year. But we're still offering you the best of what's in the archive - yes, this is all from our Collection (except the sessions and concerts - gotta give credit where credit is due - BBC 6 Music and Radio X in London and RNE In Madrid are essential sources of finding new music) but everything is the result of yours truly digging into boxes, climbing over shelves, falling into dumpsters. It's history, it's important and it's yours if you want it. All you have to do, if you're up for it, is subscribe via Patreon (that little box at the bottom of this post) - click on it and you'll be taken to their site where you can subscribe to Past Daily, let them know how much you want to donate - or check us out for free, test drive our site as it were and decide to become part of the Past Daily experience. Simple, painless and we'll love you for it. Do it if you can and you'll be able to download your own copy of all our posts and new ones as they appear. Kind of cool, don't you think? But you have to become a Patron in order to do it. Think about it - no pressure - honest - really . . no pressure. But there's this landlord . . . .
