Southern Okinawa was the end for the two generals who led the battle. Simon Buckner, killed by shrapnel at a forward observation post, and his counterpart, Mitsuri UshiJimi, who committed seppuku. Buckner died at a nondescript road junction; Ushijima in a sea facing cave. 144 steps to up get there

Enjoying @chalkefestival.bsky.social Highlight so far has been Phillips Payson O’Brien talk about WW2 leaders - fascinating insights - plus I had the pleasure of meeting Peter Caddick-Adams afterwards
