I don't think I chastise myself. It is just the persistance of memory. I
did
what had to be done at the time. And I did it without reservation or
regret.
But I raised three children. When they were young I would play with them,
read
them stories give them hugs and kisses as a daddy does. But every now and
again
as I was doing this I would think of the bomb patterns over Cologne and
the
smoke and flames rising to 5,000 feet and wonder. And I am still
wondering. I
guess it is the occupational hazard of all bombardiers. The bombardier on
the
Enola Gay became a priest in Japan.


The bombardier on the Enola Gay, Thomas W. Ferebee, retired from the USAF as
a Colonel in 1970. After leaving the Air Force, he worked in real estate in
and around Orlando, Florida. He and his wife had four sons.
