World war II was a very memorable part of history and full of catastrophes but one of the biggest catastrophe was actually preformed by the US. America had a way of taking care of our enemy Japan, and at this time in history America had a huge grudge against the Japanese for destroying Pearl Harbor one of our major naval bases with Japanese Type 99 Assault planes. Along with that it would also be the last step toward the end of world war II itself. This battle against Japan lasted for 5 years and was grueling with harsh jungle terrain with the fear of not knowing where the enemy may appear from, when you were going to be ambushed or when the time may come where they would need to be on the ready for the Japanese.
The weapon that had ended this horrid war were two atomic bombs named "Fat man" and "Little boy"both weighing close to 10,000 lbs. and final projects to the perfect end game of the WWII campaign. Before the 2 bombs were released no one was aware this was going to happen and no one was warned about the B-29 bomber, the people of both Nagasaki and Hiroshima were oblivious to the bombing that would come. The bombing and poisoning of both "Fat man" and "Little Boy"proved to have been catastrophic causing 90% of Hiroshima to have been destroyed along with 90,000 lives to die by Fat man and in Nagasaki, about 40,000 to die from Little boy.
After the Bombing happened A pilot from Japan had went to Hiroshima only to find that it was covered in a humongous cloud of smoke and radiation. Many were dead or seriously injured, it's fascinating to this day that there were survivors that to this day still show signs to this day of the horrifying after effects of these horrific bombs. The true rebuilding actually happened in May of 1959 where Japan would make several laws to help the rebuilding of not just Hiroshima or Nagasaki but of the people would had survived and had to deal with memories of it.
