According to war ruins surveys carried out from 2018 to 2020, a number of bunkers were confirmed in Miyako Island city where residents evacuated to protect their lives, with different purposes from battle-related issues for military purposes. In this exhibition, we will exhibit how residents evacuated and lived while protecting themselves during the Battle of Okinawa with the aim of deepening understanding of the war from the residents' point of view.
