Tell us your VE Day memories

With the surrender of Germany on May 7, 1945 the Second World War ended in Europe and hope was restored.

But where were you? Were you one of the millions who took to the streets on May 8, after hearing Sir Winston Churchill announce the allied victory? What are your memories of the day which became known as V. E. Day?

To mark the 60th anniversary the Observer wants to hear from current and former Bexhill residents.

We want you to share your memories, send us your photographs and tell us what your first thoughts were when you heard the news the war had ended after six long years of rations and fear.

Be a part of the Observer's 60th anniversary celebration. Contact our Newsdesk on 730555.
