Great article, thanks for posting it.

BTW, I find myself wondering how many of the crew that flew Bockscar (i.e. the plane that carried out the Nagasaki bomb mission) are still with us?

Brave men, all.

You are spot on, the Bockscar’s crew got less attention than Enola Gay’s.

I am often puzzled why newspapers in the U.K run more interesting stories about things going on in the U.S.
than our own newspapers do.
