2013.8.15

It is the anniversary of the end of World War II today.  It has been 68 years since the World War II ended. 
There was a formal commemorative ceremony in Tokyo with the presence of the Emperor and Empress and the Prime Minister.  The total number of the participants was about 6000, and among them 4672 were the family members of the dead soldiers.  Their ages are between 10 and 99 years old.   And the number of the wives is getting less and the number of the grandchildren is getting more.  In the last war, about 3100000 people lost their precious lives.  Because of their effort, now we are living in the peace world. 
We have had many TV programs dealt with the war these days.   More and more people are getting old and the records of the war are difficult to be saved.  What can we do with this matter?
