Hiroshima: Why the Bomb Was Dropped
Why did the Truman administration make the U.S. the only nation ever to use the atomic bomb on another country? ABC News' Peter Jennings examines this long-debated issue. Learn America's rationale and why historians doubt Truman's control of the situation, and see rarely viewed footage of the devastation the bombing caused.
Peter Jennings takes a behind-the-scenes look at the Truman administration and the events that led to the atomic bombing of Japan in 1945. Includes footage of the incredible destruction, some of which has been kept secret for decades.
