Seventy-four years after the end of World War II, high school students in Aichi Prefecture are working to pass down stories of students who lived through wartime air raids.

Through the activities, they have come to think that the war is not something just in the past.

At Toyohashi-Chuo High School in the city of Toyohashi, members of the school council and others have been collecting stories related to the U.S. air raid on the Toyokawa Naval Arsenal on Aug. 7, 1945.
