#4 I'm surprised that lefty bastard Terkel didn't keel over dead when Tibbet's laid that answer on him.
Maybe Joe Mendiola can drop by to buy his grandson a drink and discuss current affairs...

#5 Wouldn't that be something if Tibbet's next interview had him talkin' like Joe. :)

Take it from one who knows the score
The 509th is winning the war

I read somewhere that this was a taunting song on Tinian in the summer of '45. Many knew that the 509th was training for some s00per sekrit mission, which (I gather) the other men thought was extremely unlikely to actually win the war. Surprise!

"Somewhere" might've been in Terkel's book.
