Nagasaki, September 1945

Marines

This is a very poor picture but it shows our marines marching into the city for occupation duty. Note that they are passing some still standing buildings which was somewhat unusual. Parts of the city were more or less protected by hills from the blast.

These photographs were saved by Basil Duncan a Marine in the Occupational Forces
