Tatsusei Yogi: June 10, 1945
The rain stopped and many planes came. We felt safer than when we were in the shack. There was no food except for sugar cane, and we felt sorry for the children. We tried to dig for potatoes this morning. The bombing was heavy, but we are still alive.
We moved to Komesu, but a soldier told us that the mountain area of Kiyan would be safer so we went there. I thought that the mountain would have a rock shelter, but we could not find any. We stayed in the shallow overhang of a rock.
