In this image made from video, Tetsuko Shakuda speaks during a video interview in Hiroshima, western Japan, Monday, Aug. 3, 2020. Shakuda was a frightened 14-year-old when she resumed her work as a conductor on a tram line in the devastated city of Hiroshima, just three days after the atomic bomb exploded 75 years ago, badly damaging the tracks and most of the trams. The U.S. first atomic bomb that exploded on Aug. 6, 1945, changed everything. As that first tram on Aug. 9 moved through Hiroshima, it passed huge piles of rubble and decomposing bodies. (AP Photo)
