Kikuko Shinjo, better known as ‘Shinjo-Sensei,’ an 89 year-old native of Iwakuni and survivor of the atomic bombing in Hiroshima during World War II, invited a group of MCAS Iwakuni residents to help her donate 1,000 paper cranes, which she folded, to the Children’s Peace Monument at Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park as a symbol for peace.
