	CHIRAN, Chiran Tourist Information and Travel Guide at InfoHub.com
		In the eighteenth century, the Shimazu's chief retainers, the Sata family, were permitted to build a semi-fortified village and a number of their lovely samurai houses survive today.
		Central Chiran consists of one main road oriented roughly east-west.
		The last stop in Chiran is a five-minute ride southwest from the Buké-yashiki-iriguchi bus stop, where the Special Attack Peace Hall (daily 9am-5pm; ¥500, or ¥600 including Museum Chiran) marks the site of a military airfield established in 1942.

		They've come not for Chiran's green tea and purple yams, nor for its exquisitely preserved samurai estates—but to honor its kamikaze pilots.
		Chiran's location in a hidden valley close to Okinawa made it an ideal launchpad for the so-called Tokkotai, or Special Attack Corps.
		Right-wing nationalists have made Chiran a shrine: every Aug. 15, which the Japanese mark as the date of the war's end, trucks roll through the streets blaring nationalist messages and songs.

	Mikan Moblog: Chiran (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Chiran, a town to the south of Kagoshima, is known as the site of one of the major bases from which the tokkotai ('kamikaze') pilots made their attacks on Aliied ships.
		However, I'm almost certain I remember seeing the two characters for kamikaze (it means 'divine wind') written in the letters (left by the pilots of the tokkotai) on display in the museum at Chiran, and if you refer to the tokkotai as 'kamikaze', most Japanese know what is being talked about.
		The reason that the term 'kamikaze' is associated with the suicide pilots of WW2 comes from an incident nearly 700 years earlier.

	Tokkoutaiin no inochi no koe ga kikoeru
		The author never explains details of his time at Chiran Air Base, such as when he was stationed there, what was his role, and how he got to know personally the kamikaze pilots who sortied.
		In 1985, two memorial stone lanterns were erected at the site of the remains of the triangular-shaped barracks where kamikaze pilots spent their last night or two prior to their final missions.
		Chapter 3 at times goes far astray from the book's main subject, as the chapter includes one section on the truth about dropping the atomic bomb and another section on how the topic of war is addressed in textbooks in Japan and other countries.

	GN Online: No plans to sell Hyderabad's Chiran Palace
		Chiran Palace, the official residence of Prince Mukarram Jah, an heir of the Nizam's dynasty that once ruled Hyderabad state, in the Kasu Brahmananda Reddy national park in posh Jubilee Hills, will not be sold.
		Rather, she was working on a plan to restore the various buildings in the Chiran Palace complex.
		Some of her unfinished business was to reopen the Chowmohalla Palace after the restoration work was completed, restoring the Purani Haveli and Chiran Palace and to put and end to various legal and private problems.

		Chiran suddenly turned aggressive, striking again and again, and all Yusuke could do was block them with his wooden staff.

		Chiran dropped his sword and crumpled to the ground in a heap.

	Chiran
		Chiran in Kagoshima is in the south of the southern most island, Kyushu.
		Kaimondake is significant in Kamikaze history as the pilots circled this mountain as a final farewell to Japan as they headed for Okinawa.
		During attacks against Americans off Okinawa, 1,036 Kamikaze pilots flew from Chiran, Bansei, Miyakonoja and other airfields, plus 8th Flight Division on Taiwan and Giretsu Airborne Division.

	GreatAndhra.com - Chiran Palace to come under bulldozer?
		Reversing another decision of the previous Telugu Desam regime, the YS Rajasekhara Reddy-led Congress Government is planning to offer an alternative piece of land in lieu of the 5.5-acre land belonging to the family members of former Nizam at the Kasu Brahmananda Reddy Park.
		After a long-drawn legal battle, the State Government acquired the 400-acre park more than a decade ago, but did not disturb the structures which are found at 17 places within the premises.
		The Nizam’s descendants too are unlikely to oppose the present government’s proposal as they are not able to develop the land in their possession due to its location in the midst of a national park.
