 The Kiss of All Kisses

If you attend the Super Summer Cruise, you’ll get a sneak peak at something special that will be officially displayed on Sunday, August 14th at 5:30pm on the Town Square of Branson Landing.  The Branson Veteran’s Task Force invites everyone for the unveiling ceremony of “The Kiss” statue, featuring live music from the Springfield Brass Quintet.

The life-sized 700-pound statue is a full-color replica of the legendary photograph of a sailor kissing a New York City nurse taken in 1945 in Times Square when a crowd was celebrating the announcement that World War II had ended.

“The Kiss” is a project of “Keep the Spirit of ‘45 Alive,” a non-profit organization to help preserve the legacy of the men and women of the Greatest Generation and help inspire a renewal of national unity in America. Hundreds of “Spirit of ’45 Day” activities are being planned across America this month including celebrations at state veterans homes, wreath-laying ceremonies and programs organized by World War II museums.

“The Kiss” will be on display at Branson Landing for two weeks only beginning this Sunday. Call the Branson Veteran’s Task Force at 417-337-8387 for more information or visit www.SpiritOf45.org.
