Cork remembers Hiroshima and Nagasaki

category cork | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Wednesday August 06, 2003 19:35author by John - Cork Peace Alliance Report this post to the editors

Cork held its annual Hiroshima and Nagasaki commemoration in glorious sunshine this evening, 6th August - the 58th anniversary of the atomic bombing of the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Another Japanese city, Nagasaki was bombed three days later on 9th August 1945.

Organised by the Cork Peace Alliance the ceremony took place at Cork's Hiroshima and Nagasaki memorial on South Mall (near the National Monument).

A number of people spoke of the horrors of nuclear weapons - the ultimate weapons of mass destruction and a silent vigil was held. Candles were also lit.

84 year old Bob Bickerdike from Youghal recalled well over a half century ago when the horror that unfolded began to unfold.
