RARE photographs: the guy who took the photos, Kōyō Ishikawa, was a photographer attached to the police, and since there was a strict regulation that prohibited civilians from taking pictures of war damages, he was one of the few if not the only able to take photos documenting the immediate aftermath of the bombings. Even after the end of WWII, he had to keep the negatives buried in his garden, as the Allies had requested to the Japanese gov.t to handle over all the photos documenting the mess.

Meh! Thats just my opinion anyway.

PS Great pics. The last one looks like they dragged the Mother and child and the kid fell off. Look at the scuffs of burnt flesh in the street These are keepers

Japan still deserves another round of nukes if anyone sees pics of what the yellow bastards did to American POW's.

This is the face of 'unlimited warfare' where you are not just fighting the opposing nation's military, but directly attacking the will of the people to continue fighting. Of course, this type of war is seen as brutal and merciless when we attempt to apply today's standard - but that was the way all wars were fought. The Japanese and Germans applied these tactics as well, but on a much less grander scale.

No one deserves that kind of death.

I agree that's a terrible way to die. A few years ago I saw something on TV that talked about the Japanese attack on Nanking. I was horrified. I researched and found a couple of documenteries about it and now I understand why the military was so aggressive. Japan attacked China, then they attacked the U.S.. Neither China or the U.S. started anything. If the Allies hadn't won, based on what I've read and seen, we very likely would have to deal with the same massacre as the Chinese did, right here at home. Our children including babies and women of all ages raped and burned. Our men forced to watch and then be executed. I suggest that you search for "Japanese attrocities in WW2". It might give you a different perspective. On top of everything, 2 of the Japanese officers involved in the rape and were tried afterwards for war crimes are now a part of a monument celebrating certain Japanese soldiers, hailed as heroes, they have a yearly memorial for them. That's the same as if Germany built a monument and put Himmler or Hess on it and then had a party for them every year. It doesn't seem like the Japanese have much remorse. I used to feel guilty for the bombings but not anymore. The thought that my Nanie (who was young and beautiful back then)could have been savagely attacked like the Chinese women were makes me grateful for our military.
