Description | I want water! 1,550m from the hypocenter Near Tokiwa Bridge Futabanosato August 6, 1945, around 3:00 pm Tosuke Tada (29 at time of bombing, 59 at time of drawing) [Notes from the artist] Covered in blood from walking through the fires, it took 6 hours to get here. People with burns were screaming for water. Someone I didn't know gave me a soda bottle filled with river water and at last I could take a break. |
