Tatsusei Yogi: June 16, 1945
Tatsusei Yogi was a Japanese civilian in Okinawa.
We started to go to Hanja in the early morning, but later decided to go to Maezato instead. When we were passing Nagusuku there was a heavy bombing attack. So we took shelter behind a stone wall all day. Then we went to Hanja, dug a shallow hole, and slept.
