| Caption | People seeking water Drawn by Hiroyuki Goto August 7, 1945 Approx. 1,200m from the hypocenter Near Takanobashi Notes from the artist: Near Takanobashi on my way to Koi Station, I saw many people with severe burns screaming for water, but I didn't have any with me so there was nothing I could do. At a nearby fire cistern, many of those seeking water had died. |
