Truman VA Pharmacy will activate a new text and automated calling service on Wednesday, Sept. 3, to help remind Veterans when it may be time to refill their medications. The service will send a text message to any valid cell phone in the system, or it will call a landline. Veterans will have the option to respond to the text message or phone call to refill their prescription. All Veterans are enrolled in this service in the beginning. Veterans who do not wish to receive the texts may reply STOP to opt out or may call the Pharmacy call center at (573) 814-6000 option 1, then option 2, and asked to be removed. Not all medications are refillable through this software. However, the majority are.

Do you know why Victory over Japan (V-J) Day often is commemorated on different dates? When Japan accepted Allied surrender terms on Aug. 15, 1945 (Aug. 14 in the United States and United Kingdom), spontaneous celebrations erupted everywhere following the announcement. The UK decided that its official V-J Day would be the next day, Aug. 15, and Americans exuberantly joined in that day’s merriment, too. WWII did not officially end until the formal surrender documents were signed aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay on Sept. 2, 1945, and it's this date that President Harry Truman declared the U.S.' official V-J Day. However, out of the three dates, Aug. 15, usually is cited as V-J Day.
