| Title | : | fighting aaf interview with a bomb |
| Air Date | : | 07.12.1945 ( July 12, 1945) |
| Plot | : | + Program #21. The first tune is, "Great Day." From the Marianas: more news about the atomic bomb. From Guam: meet the flight engineer of a B-29 crew. From Tinian: How "our boys" live away from combat. From New York: a salute to an AAF hero. The series was noted for its early use of wire recorders in the field. This program has also been dated August 19, 1945. For forty-eight hours the world has waited breathlessly for news that would bring an end to World War 2. One of the decisive factors, which brought us to the threshold of peace, was the use of the atomic bomb. This week (1945.07.12) the world viewed with mixed apprehension and hopes the dawn of a new scientific era. The atomic bomb was not unleashed with any surge of elation or glory but in the words of president Truman it was used in order to shorten the agony of war to save the lives of thousands of young Americans. For an interview with the army airmen who dropped the first atomic bomb on Japan here is our AAF reporter. |
