From this photo, we can know how inhumane and cruel the Imperial Japanese Military was.

- reason: the baby in the picture was too little so he definitely lived with his families.
- what may happen:
His mom: there are many women in Nanking Massacre who have been raped and then killed.
His dad: The military buried some men alive.
His grandfather: I have read a story told by a survivor, about how the Japanese soldiers tortured an old man.

- the face of the baby:  his eyes and mouse looked not right and his face was covered with dirts.
If the troops just killed him, he wouldn’t look like that. So my guess is that the military tortured him, not only because of the baby, but also because there were many cases of civilians have been tortured and died.

In this photo, the victim is a little baby and we all know that babies are the most vulnerable group in the world. But as the conflict happened, babies can’t be protected. I believe Sindberg also found this scene very traumatic and he took the photo to make other people also know how the war was like.

Back in Sino-Japanese War, Nanking Massacre was one of the most important events in the first period and it was the intensification. It has strong effects nowadays. We have December 13, the starting day of Nanking Massacre, as National Memorial Day. On December 13 every year, we have public ceremony to mourn all the civilian victims and this makes people, especially teenagers like me to take history as a mirror.

I will never forget a memory like this:

One day after work, I walked to the entrance of Changshan Park. A man surnamed Tse heard the sound of a Japanese truck, so stuck his head out to take a look. Coincidentally, he caught the eyes of the Japanese troops, who immediately disembarked and tied Old Tse up, forcing him to kneel on the ground. One of them took out a bayonet, and violently hacked at Old Tse’s head. Unfortunately, though the back of Old Tse’s neck was sliced through, his head hung on by the remaining front part of his neck—he was still breathing  and alive, collapsed on the floor. Seeing this, the Japanese soldiers then raised their leather boots, mercilessly kicking him around the Changshan Park’s grounds. It was only then, with his head severed and his body trashed, that Old Tse passed away.
