<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 269886, member: 59&quot;]I&#039;m afraid the story, at least as far as the timing, is incorrect. US and other Allied forces did not start to arrive on the Japanese home islands until Aug 28, 1945. The bombing of Nagasaki was on Aug 9th. Almost 3 weeks, not 3 days. And probably a fair amount longer than that. Not to say that some soldier did not pick this up in Nagasaki at some point, but a lot longer after the bombing than the story.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll leave commentary on the piece itself to those who know more about this sort of thing than I do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
