bought this issue the second I saw it, but after reading it I have to say I was a bit disapointed and the story didn't get the type of coverage and detail it deserves. Time has gone down hill on their writers it seems.
A Nagasaki Report
June 29, 2005
American George Weller was the first foreign reporter to enter Nagasaki following the U.S. atomic attack on the city on Aug. 9, 1945. Weller wrote a series of stories about what he saw in the city, but censors at the Occupation's General Headquarters refused to allow the material to be printed. Here is the first of Weller's stories, running in a newspaper for the first time ever, 60 years after it was written in September 1945.
Ewok85 said:I saw a documentary on TV about this last night. Was very interesting and I'd agree with some of the points brought up. The first being the reason for dropping the bomb; compared to what the alternative would have been - a mass land invasion by allied troops - I think the death toll was far far lower.
