But the man who was there when the Armistace was signed was most certainly in your so called Halls of power.So was my Dad,and my husband, plus Uncles,future BIL's, many friends were in that area. One was there when they signed the Armastice. He is still alive.

My Dad and your various relatives were not in the halls of power nor did they have the information our leaders had. the fact was, everyone knew the Japanese had been beaten and the people who had the practical military experience- namely Ike and MacArthur - felt the use of the bombs were unneeded.
