Reiko Yamada
Reiko Yamada was eleven at the time of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. She recalled it being a very hot summer day and commented how the, “airplane body, glittered very beautifully, glittered with silver colour in the sky, a blue sky and all of a sudden, the scenery was turned dark.” Yamada-san’s family all returned safely, despite some injuries, however, she remembers other families were not as lucky. She hopes that all people can understand the indiscriminate nature of these weapons saying, “we cannot allow even a single bomb to exist on this planet.”
