1945, two years before I was born

 If it is called 1945, it is the year from which the atom bomb was dropped to Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

 As for men with a radius of less than 500m, according to record, 95% or more dies instantly in Hiroshima. The dead and a missing person are 250,000 persons. It is said that the mushroom cloud arrived even in height of no less than 17,000m after atom bomb dropping.

 August 6, this day, and Hiroshima are the weather which even a cloud does not have. What reason and the air-raid alarm currently taken out past and at once [ 8:00 a.m. and ] is called off. it was heard and people returned to usual morning work -- the atom bomb exploded then exactly 570m in the sky of Hosoe-cho (present Otemachi) in the city (explosion)

 It is an army colonel's ティベッツ to have commanded bombing. having carried in B29 and "エノラゲイ" -- an uranium bomb It is a bomb equivalent to 20,000t of TNT gunpowder.

 が and an army, i.e., the Imperial Headquarters, did not tell people about this fact. There is no tragedy beyond this for が and a Japanese. An atom bomb will be dropped shortly in Nagasaki on following the 9th continuing.

 Why was the atom bomb dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Was it dropped? If it was only display of might, even if it dropped nothing to Hiroshima or Nagasaki, there must also have been a method of for example making it explode by the peace on the ocean near Japan. The center of Tokyo Bay was sufficient. Even if that was not right, then, already, as for the inside of Japan, it is the carpet bombing by the U.S. Forces, and most had become the burned field.

 It was [ which cannot but do so ] reasonable even if it made it が and the United States (?).

 July 17 in front of going back atom bomb dropping of Hiroshima, and about 20 days. Three persons, Truman, Churchill, and Truman, are discussing processing in Potsdam after the war. Based on the contents of the Potsdam talk, so-called "Potsdam Proclamation" is made after it (July 26).

 The contents pressed Japan for unconditional surrender. が and the Japanese government announce this "ignores" (July 28).

 The following tragedy occurs here.

 In the meaning "they are not YES or NO, either", although the Japanese government used the word "disregard", this is English and he was translated as "IGNORE (disregard)." And only the language applied and traveled the inside of the world.

 If it is those who have studied a little English, it should turn out how the word "IGNORE" is severe. Also in an everyday conversation, if the word "IGNORE" comes out, the feeling of strain used as the pin will run. The shock merely given to a partner rather than "NO" only is strong. The word "IGNORE" is such a word.

 Then, the United States dropped the atom bomb to Hiroshima and Nagasaki according to Potsdam Proclamation and the 13th clause. It is in the 13 clause like this.

 Unless "Japan surrenders unconditionally, only quick and perfect annihilation ある is with ".

 Most, from it or before, since dropping of an atom bomb was prepared carefully, Potsdam Proclamation is also considered to have built the excuse of atom bomb dropping. However, as a flow, it was connected to ->(Potsdam Proclamation) (Japan ignores) -> (atom bomb dropping).

 And Japan looks at atom bomb dropping and accepts unconditional surrender to the Allies. It is a thing on August 15. It is a thing before bearing me (two years and two months).

 coming out -- after it and "-- bearing -- 難き -- bearing .... the Japan side follows [ the 玉音 broadcast (August 15 noon) by the Emperor well known for ", and MacArthur ] an instrument of surrender with a sign (September 2) on arrival (August 30) and U.S. Forces warship Missouri on the Atsugi base

 Meanwhile, although hardly known in Japan, the journalist from Australia who looked at the tragic state of Hiroshima is writing such a report to the daily express company in Britain ("the 20th century and front record").

 "In Hiroshima of 30 days after, a man dies still more and it dies. It dies depending on what thing no other way is but that to describe [ that it was unhurt ] of an atom bomb it is.

 (Aspect of Hiroshima) It seems that the steamy roller of 怪物 size goes past, and it erased and destroyed completely to broken pieces. .... I looked at the most fearful desolation that should shiver by this eye during [ for four years ] the war at the experimenting space of the beginning of this atom bomb.

 the battlefield of (if compared with this) Pacific Islands -- Eden -- a garden -- it is a thing

 From the moment that this desolation is brought, the survivor hated the white. The violence of the hatred is not inferior to boiling 原爆そ." (bar チェット journalist)

 The word "no-More ヒロシマ" was produced from his mouth.

 In this way, the history moves every moment. However, it brings me wonderful feeling simultaneously. It is the feeling to which the past approaches itself.

 I am born in two more years and two months. I am born in two more years and one month with .... However, I did not know such fact at all. It did not feel. Since it was not in mother's interior of the womb, either, in the time, I will say that it was "nothing."

 Present I am not me supposing the sperm which built "me" is not a sperm of "me." Present I am not me supposing the ovum which built "me" is not an ovum of "me." the present "I" is me -- 1/several 100 million -- the -- it is the probability of 1/several 100 million again, and it will only be said that having become so is

 It is difficult rather than it puts many 1 etc. in the public lottery of summer jumbo jet continuously.

 There was still even no combination with the sperm and ovum then. Where was I?  Now, in this way, if the record in 1945 is read, it will serve as wonderful feeling and my heart will be filled with it.

 The Nobel Prize is awarded to Flemming who discovered the antibiotic in this year that meets so, and December, 1945. It is アレクザンダー Flemming who discovered the penicillin praised with that "medicine of a miracle."
 
 I have trouble with my child tuberculosis in fact at the time of an elementary school and a third grader. The life was saved by が and its penicillin. Probably, I was dead as it is, supposing there was no penicillin at that time. Till then, as an incurable illness, the illness of tuberculosis is feared all over the world, and had taken many men's life.

 .... If it considers like this, "I" who am here now then does not understand something anymore further.

 They are one more year and 11 months until I am born.
