"WINNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED AFTER THE AUCTION ENDS BY THE AUCTIONEER ONCE ALL BIDS HAVE BEEN PROCESSED TO DETERMINE THE WINNER FOR EACH LOT."
Interesting letter by Enola Gay crewman Morris Jeppson, reflecting upon the mission to bomb Hiroshima. In this letter dated 26 June 2009, Jeppson writes, ''I knew at the time that [the invasion] was planned but, secrecy was tight. Japan was aware of the plan and preparing for it with Kamikazi [sic] planes and armed civilians. Japanese military wanted the invasion, because they believed the US would fail and settle for an easy armistice!I would do it again.'' With much more fascinating content. 7.5'' x 10.5'' letter is in fine condition.
