Japanese man is a double A-bomb survivor: He was in Hiroshima on business trip before returning home to Nagasaki
For a short look at the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the following MSNBC video does a decent job, although I would really recommend John Hersey's book, Hiroshima, a classic, for an in-depth account. For children, the story of Sadako Sasaki in Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes may be useful. It is certainly moving.
