Remembering VJ Day Through Gordon’s Words

As we commemorate VJ Day and the end of the Second World War, we are honoured to share the memories of the late Gordon Mills.

Gordon, who passed away in 2021 at the age of 99, was a proud veteran who served in Burma during the war. In later life, he became a regular at Sight Scotland Veterans’ Linburn Centre, which he loved! From gliding and skiing to archery and 4x4 driving, Gordon threw himself into every activity often with his wife by his side, camera in hand.

Recently, Gordon’s wife, Yvonne, found stories Gordon wrote recalling his time in Burma and his travels home after VJ Day.

We are honoured to share Gordon’s writing below, as both a tribute to his service and a celebration of his life.
