Our goal is to provide the link to remembering your loved ones. Remembering the Battle of Okinawa through stories, pictures (past and present), maps, and whatever else that is deemed appropriate for this site.
Purpose of this Site
If you've had family or friends that were lost during the Battle of Okinawa this is the site for you to request a rubbing of the name. Once a month volunteers from military bases and local Okinawans will make a trip to Peace Memorial Park to retrieve rubbings of names carved into marble. After three attempts, this site finally has all the names that are engraved on the wall posted for review.
To locate a name navigate to the Names w/ Pictures page or use the below Search Engine.
