In the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum are the charts, graphs, photos, and wax
sculptures of the living dead crawling through a ghastly city. Its all here,
chronicled behind squeaky-clean glass cases. Rental tapes and earphones are available in
German, French, Italian, English, and a few other languages. No one should be uninformed.
One poignant exhibit is a shadow of a onetime person sitting on steps when it happened.
Thats all just a shadow. Across the way at the auditorium, videos portray the
same. Hiroshima was chosen as the bomb site because it held the largest concentration of
troops and military personnel in western Japan. Another reason was because it was a
beautiful day. The reconnaissance plane that flew overhead said that the weather was fair,
meaning the target was ready to be bombed.
