was dropped by the Enola Gay on August 6, 1945 on Hiroshima. The
bomb dropped on Hiroshima and the bomb dropped on Nagasaki helped to end
War World II. These bombs devastated many people, killing most,
injuring the rest who were in the cities. If they weren't injured
physically they were injured either in property or in mental stability,
from all the carnage and death surrounding their helpless
bodies.

The destruction done to the city of Hiroshima was immense.
The blast tore though buildings and everything in its path. The
flash from the blast was so powerful that shadows were burned into
everything that was left standing. The bomb set fire to almost
everything and tore through the buildings like they were a mere piece of
paper. The atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima was so powerful that
the blast could be felt more than 20 miles away.
Below is a picture of the damage that the bomb caused
