Kiss at Times Square Photograph (1945)
At the end of World War II, in US cities everybody went to the streets to salute the end of combat. Friendship and unity were everywhere. This picture shows a sailor kissing a young nurse in Times Square. The fact is he was kissing every girl he encountered and for that kiss, this particular nurse slapped him. Yet it still remains an image icon for the end of World War II  ·

The Dept. of the Navy briefly used The Village People's "In The Navy" in TV ads. They pulled the ads after someone explained what the song, and the group, is about.
