From the gray book:

automic bomb.

We were just learning a new word and it takes awhile to learn how to spell. I read that as “automatic” as my first glance.

Interesting little blurb there in the Nimitz Gray Book.

Mentions the bomb and how large it is in one sentence. The rest of the paragraph discusses other operations. I suppose the Gray Book is just all business - but surprising not to see more made of it. I wonder if Nimitz realized the magnitude of it? He must have.
