thank you. >> okay, clifton truman daniel. >> thanks larry. i don't know the history of the native americans and the navajos in the occupation. but i know someone who was also there with the code talkers. there was -- it is the late orville landal who was a marine artillery captain and fought his way all the way across the pacific. and prior to the expected invasion was looking at maps of nagasaki. they were supposed to land at nagasaki near the port area. and nagasaki is a steep river valley. there are steep hills all around the port. and japanese gun placements were just going to be able to rain shells down on orville and his men and all the other members of the invasion force. so, he was very worried that they were not going to make it through that initial assault. well then the bombs were dropped and the war ended and orville was of course hugely relieved that they did not have to land at nagasaki. they wound up landing at nagasaki weeks later anyway as part of the initial occupation source. and/orville was heart sick at the destruction. t

now, i mentioned before his grandson clifton truman daniel, has visited numerous times. but truman did not visit japan, no. >> all right. >> i like those short answers. short answers are good. >> this i think is definitely the most questions we have ever answered during a program. >> this is a big topic and a big anniversary. >> yeah. all right. william asks, what was the timeline of decision making by president truman between the first and the second use of the atomic bomb? >> so there really wasn't a second decision. the way it's been explained to me is that he authorized the military's use of the bomb. so they had this new weapon, and they were able to use it. once the reports came in of the amount of devastation and things like that, then after the second bomb, then truman said no for the future use of this, it goes back to the executive. goes back to the president as commander in chief. so when he gave the first authorization for hiroshima, there was no second order needed. it was use as necessary. you have this new weapon. now, there were only two. that even existe

clifton truman daniel, any thoughts. >> yes, thank you, carol. and i know you just said it yourself, you do separate the japanese of today from -- and i think you also have to separate japanese civilians from the japanese military of 1945. certainly there was a wide range of emotion over the war among the japanese. there were those who were all for fighting to the last man, committing suicide, going down fighting. and there were those who were just browbeaten into that. people would just wanted to live their lives and have peace, just wanted the war to be over. i did a program in new york some years ago when shigas and she was 12 years old and badly burned and came to this country in 1955 as one of the hiroshima maidens for reconstructive surgery. we were with a group of international students and when the time for questions came around, one of the students stood up and said i'm chinese. what about what you -- you want sympathy and understanding for the bombings, what about what the japanese military did to my people, did to china. and shigacyo s

grandson, clifton truman daniel, in the last decade or more, where he has been to japan and reached out and it was largely through his efforts that we were able to get one of the last surviving cranes from sadako donated to the museum collection. all of those things have kind of come full circle with their connection between clifton truman daniel and the japanese, and, of course, the peace efforts after 1945 and the fact that the sadako family would allow that to be donated to the library is very special. i think when you see the renovated museum when we reopen later this year with both the safety plug and the sadako crane sharing the same space, it's really going to be a very meaningful approach and interpretation to that episode in history. moving on, we have one more video to show you. before i press play, it might want to do it itself. i'm trying to not let it do that. this is from when truman looks back in the 1960s when he's asked about the atomic bomb, he never really wavered much from his belief that it was the right thing to do. in 1964 and 1965, there was a television seri

clifton truman daniel has relate a story about that in the past. some comments in the last year or two of his life where he wonders about that at the very end which seems quite natural to me. most of the time he makes his decision as president and he was responsible for so many in those seven and a half years as president. it's not too surprising that he may have questioned it. when he was questioned publicly, whether it was on the television series or in writing, he often referred back to pearl harbor and the attack by the japanese as a large part of his justification. the second part was that he was saving lives. the other part about saving lives that richard frank, historian brings up, he saved a number of asian lives because of japanese occupation of asian countries. richard frank estimates about 400,000 japanese were saved a month by the fact the japanese just surrendered and were no longer causing those atrocities in asia. that's another set of lives that were saved by the speedy surrender that are otherwise would not have happened. >> excell
