The surrender of the Japanese naval base at Kurihara, located | Black History

The surrender of the Japanese naval base at Kurihara, located on Honshu Island, 1945, Japan. A Japanese man holds out his sword to an American in savage violation of 'sword ethics' - with the hilt under his right hand and the sharp blade forward. From the Japanese point of view - he is causing the American the gravest insult. The American does not care, he is not even aware of it.
