Original City

Which Japanese city was the original target for the bombs Fat Boy and Little Man?

Kyoto. Secretary of War Stimson is the only reason we did not bomb Kyoto. His reason for finding another target is because he had honeymooned in Kyoto prior to the war and had considered it a beautiful place.

Lucky break for the people of Kyoto, really.

Not so much for the folks in Nagasaki and Hiroshima.

Kokura was another potential target, but I believe it was saved by cloud cover.

The Wall $13.26 The Wall is less a collection of songs than a single work, which is sometimes frustrating; the plot lacks enough coherence to hold the snippets of music together. However, there are occasional flashes of brilliance on what arguably ranks as Pink Floyd’s most ambitious project.
