| Description | Shigeru Shibata (then, 35) was exposed at Hiroshima Red Cross Hospital. He instinctively dove under the desk as he was struck by glass pieces that covered him with blood. Shigeru was wearing these gaiters at the time. His wife was exposed while working on building demolition and died on August 12. |
