Roosevelt from what I understand during the Battle of the Bulge pressured scientists to speed up the bomb's development. I don't doubt after what happened at Dresden he would have hesitated to use it in Europe.

Maybe I've forgotten my history, but didn't the Krauts surrender on 8 May 45 and the first successful test was at Alamagordo, NM in July? A little late...unless..unless...that old bastard Patton was intending to take it to the Soviets.
