Yes, the name of the city we first visited in Japan had escaped me for many years and I never expected to know it unless I found my ship's itinerary, but out of nowhere the name came to mind. I had the impression of it being a small, muddy town, but it now has a population of over 300,000 so it must have been more of a city than I thought at the time.
I've got more to say about this later. Right now I'm just realizing that the official surrender of Japan was
September 2 on the deck of the battleship Missouri.
