🖋️ A pen that helped bring World War II to its end. General Yoshijirō Umezu used this very fountain pen to sign the surrender documents aboard the USS Missouri, bringing WWII to a close. It’s now on display in the Wardroom, on loan from the Hyogo Prefectural Museum of History. See it in person through December 2025. #USSMissouri #WWIIHistory #Curator #InstrumentofSurrender | Battleship Missouri Memorial
