HONG KONG, August 14-At the end of World War II, an American sailor kissed a nurse excitedly in front of Times Square in new york. This kissing scene has become a classic photo, which is impressive so far.

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II. Recently, the United States, one of the victorious countries, specially shaped a classic kiss photo of World War II into a memorial statue of "Kiss of Peace", which finely portrayed the joy of people welcoming victory with kisses at that time. On August 12, Edith Shane, the heroine in the photo, was invited to unveil the statue.

Edith Shane, a young nurse who was kissed by a strange sailor in new york Times Square 60 years ago on Victory Day of the Pacific War, is now an 87-year-old woman. The memorial statue of "Kiss of Peace" was made according to the classic photos taken by American Life magazine photographer Alfred Aizenshtadt on August 1945, when people in Times Square in new york were celebrating the Japanese surrender.

According to reports, Edith Shane told reporters that she was kissed by a strange man and didn't think it was "a very romantic kiss" and didn't want to push the sailor away. At that time, everyone kissed each other excitedly. She recalled: "That guy grabbed me and I closed my eyes. This is great and unbelievable. "

Shane said that she was not frightened by the sudden move of a strange man, because in Times Square, everyone would kiss everyone when they caught someone. This is a great moment, why not? She added, "Of course I let him kiss me, because he went to the battlefield and fought for me. I am really happy to do my best. "

To this day, Shane still doesn't know who the sailor who kissed her in those years. Over the years, at least twenty people have come forward to claim that they are the protagonists of the classic kiss. Sean said that they didn't lie, because that day, everyone caught a man in the street and kissed him. No one is sure who they kissed.

As for the hero, although many people claim to be the handsome American sailor, experts use 3D animation analysis to find that George Mendonca from Rhode Island should be the strange man.

In this regard, 82-year-old George Mendoza said: "Of course, I drank wine with everyone and raised a glass to celebrate the victory of World War II. He said that this photo is a great symbol of the last battle, and he also hopes that he can be recognized by the world as one of them.
