Re: The first use of the the Atomic Bomb
I agree TA Gardner. Logistically delivering an A-Bomb is undoubtedly diffucult, but given that the first successful test of an A-Bomb occurred two months after the surrender of Germany, (the Trinity test), use is Europe was never even concievable. As the development of the bomb neared completion, the Manhattan Project changed from a race against the perceived german A-Bomb project, to a race against the end of the war.
