"From the Ashes: Courage and Determination" and sponsored by Ryukyu American Historical Society. The Ryukyu America Historical Research Society was founded in 1984 by Dr. Rolf von Scorebrand, a German doctor who played a significant role in restoring the Yagaji Leprosairum after it was destroyed in the Okinawa battle. In 1999, under the new Japan NonProfit Law, the society was officially designated and incorporated as one of Okinawa`s first nonprofit organization. The images were donated by 15 American families who lived on Okinawa when the island was struggling to rise from the ashes of World War II, said Shizuo "Alex" Kishaba, chairman of the Ryukyu American Historical Research Society, the exhibition sponsor. http://www.ryubei.com/english/index.html
