As far as I can tell, the Atom Bomb wasnt ready for dropping during the fighting inGermany. Also, unless used in centrall Germany it would probably be a threat to
other countries nearby from fallout. It was a long time from "testing" till we had a couple "packaged" for air drop.. By the end of '44 the wars end was in little doubt
in Europe. However Japan was another matter entirely.
I should have also mentioned that there was not a bomb ready at this time anyway.....Thanks!
