ひめゆりがくとたい
A special nursing corps created for the defense of Okinawa at the
end of World War II. Teachers and students of the First Prefectural
Women's High School and Okinawa Normal School women's division were
virtually forced to join the corps, and many of them ended up committing
suicide as the war entered its final stage. |
