NHK Documentary - 2012/05/05 - The Truth about the Great Tokyo Air Raids

On NHK Special Tokyo Dai Kushu no Shinjitsu (The Truth about the Great Tokyo Air Raids)

(Comments by Yoshihiko Shimizu, Managing Director, Responsible for News)
From November 1944 until the end of the war in 1945, more than 100 air raids were carried out, which are known as the Tokyo Dai Kushu. More than 100,000 people lost their lives in the raid on March 10th 1945. Few videos of the raids during that half-year period exist and the full extent of the devastation hasn't been known. NHK has obtained 20,000 negatives taken on the orders of the wartime Army General Staff Office and discovered 569 photographs of the Great Tokyo Air Raids among them. The program will depict the damage suffered by citizens and the incineration of the city of Tokyo through a mix of the previously unseen photographs and the testimonies of people who experienced the air raids.
