I was in the A.T.S. and my husband-to-be was a Royal Marine Commando. My home was on the Isle of Wight and he was stationed there. While on leave I met him and we subsequently married on 4th May 1945. We went on honeymoon to Hastings and we were there for V.E. day - 8th May. It was one of the most memorable days of our lives - throngs of people singing, dancing in the streets and the things that stands out was not having to worry about lights being shown at the window etc.
