August 6th

It was on this day in 1945 that the United States dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima, Japan. It was the first time that a nuclear weapon was ever used in combat, and only the second time that a nuclear weapon had ever been exploded.

This is an excellent book.
The Making of the Atomic Bomb by Richard Rhodes
