Happy Anniversary??
Can you guess the anniversary? We did it 2 times. Should we have done it? Should we have done it again 20 years later? Should we DO it again? Should we let everyone know that we can do it again? I'll bet this raises some interesting responses. my answer is I think we should start testing again. Some dry land stuff maybe. It's been awhile... Comments ??

U.S. did the testing in mid July. Bikini Atoll was successful enough for the go ahead for use in war. It almost didn't happen because of uncertainties and minor malfunctions before and during the drop. After Hiroshima Japan still held out on total surrender. They were willing to do a military surrender which would have meant the emperor would still be in power. Truman said no way, so Nagasaki gets it on the 9th of August. That was the straw the broke the camels back. Discovery Channel has some excellent specials all week. They have some computer enhanced film of what it was like for those poor bastards during the initial blast. God, you would feel sorry for anyone within 5 miles of ground zero. I think that is where the term "wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy" came from.

This really sucks its pouring ran and SAT doesnt work cant watch it,
|
actually it was the otehr way around, the US offered an Army Surrender right before the drop on Hiroshima, The Japs said no, US dropped the bomb, the japs still said no, then dropped on Nagasaki then they said we unconditionally surrender

If anyone is interested here's a good article about the birth and debut of the 2 little darlins we dropped on Japan.
