HIROSHIMA, Japan -- Minoru Hataguchi gently opens a box and pulls out his father's corroded belt buckle. It's a haunting remnant of his father's final day when he was killed along with thousands in the atomic blast that wiped out Hiroshima.
"Of course, America used a huge amount of money to build the nuclear bomb, so they thought they should use it," said Hataguchi, director of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. He was born shortly after Aug. 6, 1945, when the devastating bomb was dropped.
