War's End

Focus is exclusively on the Nagasaki mission that saw the U.S. military drop a 10,000 pound untested plutonium bomb on the Japanese city. Gen. Charles Sweeney, who commanded this second bombing on Aug. 9, 1945, at the age of 25, for the first time on film provides his eyewitness account of the events surrounding the mission. Among his reminiscences is his first encounter with Col. Paul Tibbets, who piloted the Enola Gay in the Hiroshima bombing, the various security measures that accompanied the project, and a blow-by-blow description of the bombing. Sweeney's narrative is complemented by archival, television, and radio footage.
