| Description | Young lives 2,200m from the hypocenter Near Miyuki Bridge Drawn by Keijiro Matsushima (age 16 at the time of the bombing) [Excerpt of artist comment] The children mobilized for demolition work that morning came home badly burned. Some had been transported by an Akatsuki Corps truck. Young lives entitled to bright futures full of happy dreams, many must have died shortly afterwards. I prayed for the peaceful repose of their souls, and vowed to communicate their anguish and prayers to the world. |
