Nobuko Oshita (then 13) was a first-year student at First Hiroshima Prefectural Girls High School. She was exposed to the bomb at her building demolition work site and fled to Koi. There she was found by relief corps workers, who returned her to her parents in Otake. She died late that night. She sewed this summer uniform herself.
