Eighty years ago, a U.S. wartime action shook the world. World War II scholar and author Patrick Hicks takes us back to the moment the atomic bomb dropped from the Enola Gay.
He explores the attack's humanitarian cost and shares a conversation he had with a former U.S. soldier who ran into the aftermath of atomic bomb testing. Hicks also reads a poem to listeners about the soldier's experience (1:10-25:10).
