In memory of those that died in Hiroshima 63 years ago
I would like to add my thoughts and prayers to those that still live with the legacy and to those who wish to never see the like of it again.
For those in Dublin I found this;
A ceremony will take place in Dublin later today to mark the 63rd anniversary of the US nuclear attack on Hiroshima in 1945.
The Irish Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament is holding the event in Merrion Square at lunchtime.
Between 130,000 and 200,000 people are believed to have been killed when the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6th, 1945.
Another 80,000 were killed when the US dropped a second device on Nagasaki three days later.
The atrocities, which brought an end to World War II, remain the only nuclear bomb attacks to be carried out in the history of mankind. (from breakingnews.ie)
