ഹിരോഷിമയിലെ കന്യകമാർ

Silent USSBS (United States Strategic Bombing Survey) footage which is primarily an analysis of flash burn injuries to those at Hiroshima. At 2:00, as is typical of the shapes of sunburns, the protection afforded by clothing, in this case pants, with the nurse pointing to the line of demarcation where the pants begin to completely protect the lower body from burns. At 4:27 it can be deduced from the burn shape that the man was facing the fireball and was wearing a vest at the time of the explosion etc. Many of the burn injuries exhibit raised keloid healing patterns. 25 female survivors required extensive post war surgeries, and were termed the Hiroshima maidens.

1945നു ഹിരോഷിമയിൽ പതിച്ച അണുബോംബിന്റെ വിസ്ഫോടനത്തെ അതിജീവിച്ച് ശരീരവൈകൃതം സംഭവിച്ച 25ഓളം പെൺകുട്ടികളെയാണ് ഹിരോഷിമയിലെ കന്യകമാർ അഥവാ ഹിരോഷിമയിലെ കുമാരിമാർ എന്നു വിശേഷിപ്പിയ്ക്കപ്പെടുന്നത്. ഇവരിൽ പലരും പിന്നീട് ശസ്ത്രക്രിയകൾക്കു വിധേയരാകുകയുണ്ടായി. യുദ്ധത്തിന്റെ ദുരിതം പേറുന്നവരെ ഹിബാകുഷ എന്നപേരിലും ജപ്പാനിൽ അറിയപ്പെടുന്നുണ്ട്.^[1]

↑ Yamaoka, one of the 'Hiroshima Maidens', a group of 25 disfigured young women who had operations in New York in the 1950s. Charity groups organised by American author Norman Cousins and other volunteers helped in the treatment. The natives of Hiroshima were exposed to heat waves and radiation from the bombing on August 6, 1945. Yamaoka, who did not talk about her experiences initially, opened up after a long time in 1979. She started talking about the atomic bombing and the war. She had earlier suffered a stroke in 2006.
