93 year old Tsutomu Yamaguchi is the only known survivor of the U.S. bombings of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was in Hiroshima for a business trip on August 6th 1945. He suffered serious burns from the bombing and spent the night in Hiroshima. He then returned to his home in Nagasaki. The U.S. dropped the bomb on Nagasaki on August 9th 1945. Over 200,000 people were killed between the two bombings and thousands suffered from radiation related illnesses through many generations. When you think about the destruction that happened that week you have to wonder who is the "good guy" and who is the "bad guy" during war time?
