REVISITING THE A-BOMB
: Reader John Cummingham writes:
My father was a Marine in the First Marine Division, which was due to be one of the lead units in the Kyushu assault. Quite a high chance he would not have survived.
Needless to say, the arguments against the bombing are absurd.
I worked in Japan teaching English in 1971-72, and I occasionally discussed the bombing with Japanese people. They uniformly said that they understood the use of the A-bombs, and that OF COURSE Japan would have used them as well if they had them.
