That the Japanese were warned we had the bomb they had on their drawing boards.

I remember seeing a Newspaper headline "Second bombing looms as Japs stall".

I remember General MacArthur staying over there and getting Japan set back up as Japan, among the most honorable countries today.

I remember my Dad, who was there, saying although Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed surviving Japanese soldiers were dug in surrounding areas and continued to fight to their deaths instead of surrendering.
