strange to celebrate the American Bicentennial while living in the country we went to war with during the American Revolution! In late September 1977 when my overseas tour was complete, I received orders to report to the Strategic Air Command’s 509th Bomb Wing at Pease Air Force Base New Hampshire.

as well as conflict between the two countries of Japan and the US. On August 6, 1945, towards the end of World War II, an American B-29 bomber dropped the world’s first atomic bomb over Hiroshima. The military was unaware of what the consequences would be for their actions. A soldier described the dropping of the atomic bomb as exciting at first when they saw the cloud circle, until they saw the after effects of what they have done. The scientific gamble of the Manhattan Project has cost the…

of the atomic bomb. There are many important things that made the atomic bomb possible like: what kind of science went into it, the people who built it, other bombs compared to it, and the making of the bomb. Ever since the atomic bomb was built, it changed the way wars were fought. Albert Einstein wrote to President Roosevelt asking for an atomic research program, Roosevelt agreed to move forward slowly. Einstein's letter said that new technology would make "extremely powerful bombs of a new…

the unforgivingly wrong decision to drop the atomic bomb Hiroshima. One of the main reasons as to why it was the wrong was because it caused an excessive amount of innocent deaths and suffering. Another reason as to why it was the wrong decision to drop the atomic bomb was the atomic bomb was uncontrolled and untested, causing mass destruction.

aware that alternatives to using the bomb existed (Bird). If Truman had been more informed on the atomic bomb, he might have made a better decision, the right decision. Truman was informed on the atomic bomb mostly by James Byrnes, also known as "Mr. Atomic Bomb" (Jennings). Byrnes and General Groves had a big impact on the matter. They basically manipulated Truman into doing whatever they said because they knew everything there was to know about the atomic bomb and Hiroshima (Hunt,403).…

justifiable or not to drop the atomic bomb. From saving american lives to annihilating japanese lives there is no justification to dropping the atomic bomb the way that the United States decided to follow. No matter how much the US would intimidate Russia, and how it was one of the only ways to have a completely unconditional surrender it, it wasn’t worth destroying all the lives of the villagers living in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The starting development for the atomic bomb occurred when Leo…

United States had to make a move fast. The atomic bomb was a good way to end the war because it saved over a million American lives and brought a quick end to the war. President Truman was faced with a tough decision when he was faced with the terrible consequences of war, but in the end, when we look back on it, he clearly made the right choice when he decided to drop the atomic bomb. In order to understand Truman 's decision you have…

The fact that the United States decided to drop an atomic bomb over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan shocked many people, including U.S. citizens and the Japanese. The U.S. used a brutal force choosing the atomic bomb, as proven by the thousands of deaths caused. The U.S. knew the extent of damage it was causing by deploying the bomb, and some people still question the motives for such a ruthless choice of weaponry. The atomic bomb, however destructive and questionable, seemed to be the only sure…

War, atomic bombs the days before and now, peace Atomic bombs wouldn't never have made such a strong impression in my mind if they hadn't caused "The two bombings"-the historic event in the human history and then led the world to the Atomic Age. These are generally information about "Little Boy" and "Fat man": The atomic bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, which killed between 129000 and 226000 people, claimed to be carried out for stopping the last long WW2 and…
