Tatsusei Yogi: April 5, 1945
Tatsusei Yogi was a Japanese civilian.
We reached Tanabaru at dawn. The bombing was so severe that we stayed in the village of Kochi all day. Grandfather and Emiko were not with us. Takenobu cried and did not eat. At night we arrived at Shuri, where the houses were still burning. Shoro-san let us stay at their place which had a cave and a good source of drinking water.
