Good Morning Colonel Flagg. I had friends whose father's where in the process of shipping to the Pacific from Europe. They've never doubted the decision to drop the bombs.

Hello, Sam!

Papa Mike was a bosun's mate and would likely have piloted a landing craft to the beaches if this had ever happened. I can't imagine my life without my wife and kids - who might not have existed had this operation gone off.

Great thread. Thanks for all the extra effort!
