bullet2 Background - Images and Information

The images here show an aerial view of the city of Hiroshima after the dropping of the bomb and also the aircraft, an American B29 bomber called 'Enola Gay' which was made from aluminium and therefore would have looked a silver colour from the ground. Its four powerful engines would have made a deep droning sound as they arrived over the target.
