7.30 last night did a good story about high school girls in Hiroshima taking part in recording the previously untold stories of survivors. (The 88 and 90 year old sisters looked very sprightly, and sounded as sharp as a tack.)
I've been trying to find some other, less well known, photos with which to remember the 70 year anniversary, and perhaps these will do - a series of photos taken for Life only a couple of years after the bomb, which show both the horrifying wounds on survivors, but also signs of the resilience with which the city was (surprisingly rapidly) re-establishing itself.
