It is said that they continued to work as nurses in a narrow trench that was constantly soaked with groundwater, from cooking to burying corpses. Those 17～18-year-old students were working under challenging circumstances, hungry and exhausted. As the troops went south, casualties began to appear among them. The cave near the tower is where the Third Surgical unit was located, and it was impossible to go out even one step. About 200 lives were lost in suicides and poisonous gas attack by the US military. The Himeyuri Memorial Monument enshrines 211 female students and 16 staff members who lost their lives, consoling the souls of the dead. ◇ Iias Okinawa Toyosaki (Duration of stay: 80 minutes) Japan's southernmost large-scale shopping center opened in June 2020.
