Fewer Than 10 US Veterans of Hiroshima and Nagasaki Still Alive
Original: Fewer Than 10 American Veterans Who Saw Hiroshima and Nagasaki Are Still Alive. Their Stories Are Disappearing.
Military.com reports that fewer than ten American veterans who witnessed the aftermath of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki remain alive, and their firsthand accounts are rapidly disappearing. As the last eyewitnesses of the only wartime use of nuclear weapons pass away, historians and families are racing to record their stories before this direct link to 1945 is lost.
Why now: As the surviving generation of atomic-bomb witnesses dwindles, there is renewed urgency to preserve their firsthand accounts of nuclear war.
