1944: First kamikaze attack of the war begins

Quote Of The Day
"I feel very honoured to have been chosen to be a member of the Special Assault Unit. It is true that, once inside an aircraft, I am mere hardware, but once disembarked, I do have emotions and passions as I am also a human. When the woman for whom I cared so deeply passed away, I emotionally died with her. The idea that she waits for me in Heaven, where we will be reunited, makes death not particularly frightening for me, since it happens on the way to Heaven."
(Ryōji Uehara, flight captain of the Imperial Japanese Army, in his last letter home to his parents)
