B29 - "Necessary Evil"
George Marquardt died on 8/15. Marquardt was the pilot of "Necessary Evil",
the B29 that photographed the Hiroshima blast.
Does anyone know if "Necessary Evil" still exists...or other planes from the
509th? I know "Bockscar" is at the WPAFB museum, and "Enola Gay" is safely
in storage where no one can be offended by it. How about the other 12
planes, like "Strange Cargo" or "Next Objective". Any thoughts?
