Vichuzo Rutsa, 101, shares a laugh with his daughter-in-law Nelly as he recounts memories of the bloody battle between the Japanese and British Commonwealth forces in his village during World War II, in Kohima village, India, Wednesday, Aug. 12, 2020. For the locals, World War II was a conflict brought to their quiet lands by outsiders, and along with it, immeasurable loss. A population that had never been exposed to life beyond the village saw battle tanks and fighter planes dropping bombs over their beloved land. "We really suffered during the war," Rutsa said softly from his bed. (AP Photo/Yirmiyan Arthur)
