"My double radiation exposure is now an official government record," Mr Yamaguchi told reporters."
Funny thing is - I can remember a very similar story about 10 years back, but this time it was a soldier. His unit was in Hiroshima when they all got vaporised on the first blast (except him of course).
Since his entire unit was toast - literally, he decided to go back home - to Nagasaki.
Quote from a t-shirt I saw in Blackpool a few years back entitled "10 greatest f****"
6. What the f*** was that? - Major of Hiroshima
