TOKYO: With this year marking the 80th anniversary of the first mission of the now-defunct Imperial Japanese military’s suicide attack units in World War II, a Tokyo-based group has begun posting information about the units on Instagram, in the hopes that young people will learn about them.
The public interest group was established to hold memorials for deceased members of the units and to pass down historical facts about them.
