I am so happy today. One of the areas that I read everything I can get is about the Manhattan Project and the atomic bombings. This past week on Veteran's Day I had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman who my grandfather had served with during the war in North Africa, Sicily, and Italy before he had lost his leg and was sent home while my grandfather continued on to southern France and Germany. Well this gentleman was also a childhood friend of Lt. Col. Fred Olivi who was the co-pilot of "Bockscar" the B-29 that dropped the atomic bomb on Nagasaki. From this wonderful gentleman I was able to obtain an autographed copy of Col. Olivi's book, "Decision at Nagasaki" which was published in 1999 and signed shortly before Col. Olivi passed away this past April.
