From the Aug. 28th Fox News, AP.
A Japanese delegation arrived in Pyongyang hoping to reach an agreement to bring back Japanese soldiers buried in North Korea. The ten-day trip is being made by a group calling itself Seishinka.
Today, Japan and North Korea have no diplomatic ties, but the Japanese colonized Korea from 1910 to 1945. The group will also visit the graves of Japanese soldiers who died in the final days of the war.

My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.
