松を見に兼六園に行った。
数々の大木は圧巻だったが、私の心を揺さぶったのは
太平洋戦争時、軍用航空機の燃料として松脂を採取するため
大きく削られた松の木の姿だった。
日に日に強まる暑さの中で、平和を考える。
6月23日、今日は戦後79年目の沖縄・慰霊の日。
Visited Kenroku-en to see the pine trees.
Although the large trees were very impressive, what truly moved me were the pine trees that had been cut down to extract resin.
Which was used as fuel for military aircraft during the Pacific War.
Thinking about peace, as the heat gets stronger day by day.
June 23rd, today is the 79th anniversary of Okinawa Memorial Day since the end of the war.
