42. Prefectural Technical School Monument
What did you dream of
For the future?
I want to believe it was
To become a technician
Who seeks useful technology for everyday life,
Not for weapons.
These boys became the pillars for peace.
Explanation
The Municipal Technical School was annexed to this school at that time.
A total of 267 were killed. The monument was erected in May, 1962.
The Tanka poem on the monument reads:
On a rainy day,
On a windy night,
Alas, souls!
Keep your eyes
On our school
In tranquility.
