At Fukuromachi National School, the wooden school building was completely destroyed by the Hiroshima atomic bomb. Only the reinforced concrete of west school building survived the collapse. Approximately 160 children and faculty members who were attending school on August 6 were severely exposed and died almost instantly. The remaining Fukuromachi National School had a rescue camp from October 5th. Fukuromachi Relief Hospital was established as the Japan Medical Group Hospital. At that time, a total of seven relief hospitals were set up in Hiroshima City. On the wall of the stairs, there were many messages left with chalk asking for the whereabouts of the A-bomb survivors. The emergency hospital was operated for two months under the Wartime Disaster Protection Act. As of October 5, the number of inpatients reached about 500 and the number of outpatients reached about 1,200.
