whitehall, along with other areas of london, was the scene of celebrations on 8 may 1945 when victory in europe was declared in the second world war. more formal processions past the cenotaph took place during the london victory celebrations on 8 june 1946. the cenotaph had been designed to commemorate the british empire military dead of the first world war, but this was later extended to include those that died in the second world war. the dates of the second world war were added in roman numerals on the sides of the memorial (1939—mcmxxxix; and 1945—mcmxlv), and the memorial was unveiled for a second time on sunday 10 november 1946 by king george vi. the memorial is now also used to remember the dead of later wars in which british servicemen and servicewomen have fought. the cenotaph was designated a grade i listed building on 5 february 1970.
