Interesting story of reconciliation. I hadn’t realised A bomb survivors were sent to USA for treatment and that Lewis (who says he was acting for the crew) presented money for the medical scheme. I’ve read several times that no crew member ever said “my God, what have we done?” . Clearly one crew member did indeed say that. Loved the 1950’s adverts for nail polish and shampoo!
I got to see the Enola Gay at Washington Dulles just last month. An aircraft I’ve always wanted to see. And coincidentally reading Navigator, Dutch Van Kirk’s book right now.
