To Pereliu Island !


by Kazu

It was so beautiful sunrise on that day. We left the hotel and get on the boat to visit Peleliu Island where many Japanese soldiers fought and died.
To attend the memorial service for the deceased Japanese soldiers, our attire was "smart casual" on that day. Japanese soldiers starved but fought much longer days than the US Navy anticipated. 
It was not so hot for coral islands but the winds on the ocean was so comfortable for us. Praying for the ease of the soldiers' souls, we imagined the harsh battle between the nations.
