Hear about Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Survivor Shigeaki Mori-san and his work recovering the names of the American Prisoners of War (POW’s) who perished in the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb. His research brought peace of mind to almost a dozen American military families. If you missed the live broadcast, please view the talk here on YouTube:
