The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki events are dark history of war in this world. Atomic bomb attacks devastated Japanese Sakura country and resulted in the downfall of many victims in both cities. Not only was the effect after the attack is prolonged suffering from generation to generation as a result of chemical radiation is revealed through genetics.
Atomic bombs were dropped in Hiroshima City and Nagasaki occurred on August 6, 1945, which occurred during World War II, which is done by the allies with an excuse to silence the Japanese imperial forces are known to be very heroic, unyielding and loyal to the emperor. The atomic bombs killed as many as 140,000 people in Hiroshima and 80,000 in Nagasaki by the end of 1945.
Six days after the dropping of the atomic bomb on Nagasaki, on August 15, Japan announced that Japan surrendered unconditionally to the Allies, signed the instrument of surrender on September 2, officially ending the Pacific War and World War II. (Germany had signed the surrender on May 7, 1945, ending the European theater.) This makes the Japanese bombing of postwar adopting Three Non-Nuclear Principles, forbidding the country has nuclear weapons.
Atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 and that was dropped on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. Why Hiroshima chosen as the first target of the US atomic bomb attack this? Obviously Hiroshima chosen as the first target of attack by the US military careful consideration at that time.
During the second World War, Hiroshima rarely hit by bombings. But the city's status as a military headquarters of Japan, making it an easy target of the opponent. Hiroshima is also known as a major port city in Japan. The reason is what makes this city as a strategic objective of the atomic bomb made in America.
While the reason Nagasaki itself is not the main target of the US. Kokura is a potential target chosen along Kyoto and Niigata. Nagasaki chosen as the successor to the Kyoto as a potential target. Kyoto was chosen because of religious reasons that support the Japanese military pattern.
While the third potential target Niigata, were excluded because of its distance from the Philippine Military Base, where bombers took off for Japan. But in the end the choice fell on Nagasaki targets, because the US military is also crossed Kokura of their target list.
Nagasaki is a city of its shipbuilding industry can be said to be advanced. But this city is not the favorite city to be attacked because it was bombed five times during the last 12 months before the atomic bomb attacks swept. As a result, only Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by atomic bombs the US.
The bomb bomb dropped from a B-29 Flying Superfortress named Enola Gay (strange name) piloted by Lieutenant Colonel. Paul W. Tibbets, a height of about 9,450 m (31,000 ft).
This weapon exploded at 8:15 am (Japan time) when he reaches a height of 550 meters. To drop this bomb plane is flying pretty high and using google special (special eye protection) anti-radiation, in a documentary that I saw, the bombers have pressure (pressure) the soul is very large because the powerful bomb will drop into the middle of settlements , but they still do it for the sake of the nation task. there is an event that captured a moment there when the bomb was dropped.
"A bright light meets the plane," he writes Tebbits. "We rotate the plane back to look at Hiroshima. The city is hidden behind clouds horrible. Boiling, fluffy mushroom. "After that, while no one spoke. But next, everyone talking. "Look at that! See it! See it ... ..! "Said co-pilot Robert Lewis as he hit shoulder Tibbets. Lewis said he could feel the atomic fission process that occurs when the atomic bomb exploded. It felt like lead. He then turned to writing in a note. "God," he asked himself, "What have we done?"
Up to the present bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki City is still a deep wound trauma and perceived Japan and around the World. Through this article we both can see and reflect on how the harmful effects caused by the war. Suffice World War II into a final battle that happened in this earth. Hopefully not the same thing happen again in our time. Thank you for reading this article. Written and posted by Bambang Sunarno. sunarnobamban86@gmail.com
