HIROSHIMA SURVIVORS

HITOSHI TAKAYAMA Hiroshima A-bomb survivor, in front of the tomb for unknown victims at the Peace Memorial Park. He was 15 years old and training to work at the Nippon Express Company automobile garage in Minami-machi when the bomb fell. He immediately ran inside a building which protected him from immediate injury, but 16 years later he developed cancer on his hip and back. He remembers the scenes of horror and the suffering of dying people he saw around him. He lifts his shirt to show where much of the muscle from his back was removed in the cancer operation. I don't mind showing people my injuries if it teaches them about what happened.
