World War Two
Published 20 Jul 2024This week the Americans explode a nuclear bomb at the Trinity Test in New Mexico. The plan is to possibly use more such bombs against targets in Japan.

The active war continues, of course, in Burma, Borneo, the Philippines, and China, with the Japanese being defeated everywhere.
