| Description | Soldiers from Okayama would carry the corpses of children, one or two at a time, to a temporary crematorium on stretchers. These children had been injured by the bomb and taken to the army hospital for treatment but had soon died. The hands and legs sticking out of the stretcher swung with the motion. My chest suddenly seized with emotion. |
