Sadly we’ll never know and throwing our hands up in the air and shouting “boo” and “atrocities” or “lets punish Japanese and American commanders‚ naval officers‚ and flight lieutenants” will be of no use whatsoever. Afterall‚ what is done is done. We can’t undo it. Now all we can do is move forward carefully‚ having learned from the horrors of the past. America was the “new‚ rich kid” country‚
