Curtis LeMay was a great American.

As was Harry Truman and Paul Tibbets and the many great Americans that made the hard decisions to win the war in the Pacific, not just fight it.

Revisionist history now vilifies them for their courage to make those decisions.

Tibbets in particular had no brief with anyone Monday morning quarterbacking about decisions made during the war and the conduct of it. He said none of those people ever had theirs b*lls on the anvil.
