Peace Museum for Kamikaze Pilots ー
知覧特攻平和会館
- Historic Sites
Frankly, it is difficult to introduce the facility.
Toward the end of World War Two, a kind of suicide attack that planes taking bombs attacked the enemy’s warships
and hit a certain warship was conducted by the Japanese Air Forces.
All the documents about the attack were kept in the museum.
The pilots taking part in the attack were almost young people as the twenties.
There are a lot of documents about war and history.
