Near the sea of Ishigaki Island, Okinawa. Today is Okinawa Memorial Day in Japan. The Battle of Okinawa began on 1 April with a US landing and ended on 23 June. More than 200,000 lives were lost—1 in 4 Okinawans. It’s a public holiday in Okinawa to remember those who died and to pray for peace. Looking at the turquoise sea and sky, I hope from my heart that no more blood or tears are shed, no matter what country we live in.
