@GeneralDoug13 I would agree that it is quite unsettling. The war is over... but our job is never truly done. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@Nimitz13 I'd say you #nailedit. the army and navy truly make a beautiful team #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@GeneralDoug13 Although we may not have seen eye to eye on everything, it has been a pleasure working with you! Generals now, friends forever <3 #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@Nimitz13 @PrezHTruman It has been quite a ride... us leaders handled this war with incredible amounts of integrity and honor, I am proud to have served with you all. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@GeneralDoug13 What a tremendous accomplishment! Can't wait to see the progress you make over there. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@DekeParsons Glad we were prepared, but I think what was needed was done after the second. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

Groves has informed me of the availability of a third bomb… not sure what the President will decide to do with this information. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

Have received some concerning news from General Bissel… it seems unclear to us Allies which course of action the Japanese are going to choose. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

“The destruction at Hiroshima was so complete that there was no communication, at least for a day… it was not until the second destruction took place at Nagasaki that the Japanese were really aware of what happened in the earlier bomb explosion" #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

I have received some confidential news… it seems that Russia will declare war on Japan, effective at midnight. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

“The first reactions to the appearance of the atomic bomb over Hiroshima were to be expected but I am amazed at the rapidity with which conclusions are being formed in this country regarding the effect of such a weapon our military policy”. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@HenryStim @Groves_theGreat @ByrnningUPPP I hope the confidence we feel now stays until the end of the war! This could really work... #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

“The conference at Potsdam was hard work and rather trying but we were comfortably set up and had some very pleasant evenings.” #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

“Admiral King, General Arnold and I feel that we have completed our military business here at Potsdam…Further, we feel that our departure tomorrow morning would have the advantage of indicating to the Russians that we are not in a position of soliciting their support.” #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

After conferring with Stimson about the schedule of the use of a secret weapon… I have concerns about the effect of the rainy season on the timing of these operations #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@EnricoFermi13 If there's one thing I've learned throughout this war, it's that there is NEVER enough money... #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@HenryStim @OppenheimerJBob @EnricoFermi13 @Groves_theGreat I look forward to hearing your thoughts... we have some big decisions to make. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@HenryStim @Groves_theGreat There is a fine line we must be careful of when choosing the target city. I have no doubt the bombing of Kyoto would damage the will of the Japanese people... but the question is if there are other cities that could also accomplish this to a lesser extent. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@HenryStim Indeed, it was! I look forward to meeting again soon. #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

Meeting today with Stimson and Mccoy to figure out how to deal with these Russians… #2018CUAB

[George Marshall @Cu132Gen]

@Eleanor28713137 You make a good point, and yet, they truly are a puzzle we have yet to be solved. #2018CUAB
