Goodbye General Tibbets

Another member of the greatest generation passes into history at 92. I know my own grandfather isn't far behind there. He was part of the invasion of Iwo Jima and Tibbets actions may have saved his life as he was on transport preparing for the invasion of Japan where they were estimating 300,000 US casualties and upwards of 2 million Japanese dead.

Goodbye General and thanks, there is a good chance I wouldn't be here without your actions.
