一日の画像 - Picture of the Day

Seen here are the men enshrined at the Yasukuni Shrine honoring over 2 Million of Japan's War Dead going back to the Boshin War. The Yasukuni Shrine is privately funded and despite the never ending objections by China & Korea over visits by Japanese Politicians ( due to the presence of 14 Class A War Criminals), it remains as China itself would regard as an internal matter. On this 68th Anniversary of the end of the Pacific War, we choose to take a moment out to remember the men of all nations who fought and gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country. May the tragic lessons of these enshrined men be not forgotten unto the future generations so that war may never be revisited upon Japan nor the world again.
