Hiroshima, Japan -- Grim reminders of the atom's might is this picture of wierd [sic] destruction in Hiroshima. First city ever hit by an atom bomb. Steel girders twisted into grotesque shapes by the tremendous power of the atom blast are all that remains of a modern reinforced steel structure in the city. Its tortured shape in the foreground while in back ground stands another structure, miraculously erect, but gutted by flame. "C" U 9-845 4-5-6" -- typed note attached to verso.
