4. I wonder if his childhood was well after mine and he never saw an issue of LIFE or any of the other sources I mentioned

He may be just the bee’s knees as you say, but if even small children were exposed to photos from Hiroshima and Nagasaki via magazines in the average American home — then the info he claims has been covered up is maybe not so much?

And as the child learned to read there were a stack of national bestsellers on every aspect of WWII — I was going to say a not-so-average home, but good lord’n’butter if a book is a national bestseller, it’s in a lot of homes. This he calls a cover-up?

On Edit: He was born the same year as I was.
