Weighing in on Enola Gay
By Daniel M. Sheehan, Assistant Managing Editor
Air Force Magazine - June 1995, Pg. 83
Although the National Air and Space Museum's planned exhibit
on the Enola Gay, the B-29 that dropped the atomic bomb on
Hiroshima, and the end of World War II, was drastically scaled
back, the controversy continued to boil. The Indiana General
Assembly passed a resolution condemning the exhibit, calling on
Museum Director Martin O. Harwit (who has since resigned) to
apologize publicly to veterans, and praising the groups "who
worked so hard to have the exhibit discontinued as previously
planned," specifically citing AFA as one of those groups.
