I have been...advised...under no uncertain conditions that going to one of the commemoration ceremonies is Not Done. As in, can be very much unsafe for Americans, particularly those who are obviously not Japanese - which you, with your fair skin and curly red hair, would most certainly be. While in general, it is talked about as 'the bombs that fell' rather than the US bombing, there is still a great deal of anger under the surface that can come up, particularly at the time of the commemorations or the dates of the bombings.
