It's been an incredibly intense experience for me. I don't think I'll ever forget the sound effects of bullets zinging by and the peculiarly chilling thump they make when hitting bodies.

And for the first time I kind of understand why Truman used atomic bombs to stop the war. I still think it was unnecessary, but I can understand why some people would think it was. This program definitely shows just how determined the Japanese soldiers were. I think if they had surrendered the world might be a very different place today. We wouldn't have propelled ourselves into a world military power if we had never used the atom bombs on Japan.

Maybe not though. Stalin very quickly acquired the secret of making the bomb. I guess someone would have used it anyway.
