Celebrations and events are being held around the world to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day – the day when fighting against Nazi Germany in Europe came to an end. In this 5 Live News Special, we’re highlighting some of the personal stories from the time through letters written to loved ones, which are read for us by relatives of the authors. The letters have been collected by the Imperial War Museum. You can see the whole collection at https://ve-vjday80.gov.uk/letterstolovedones/
