Wow, no toilet paper? Those B-29's crews were REAL men who didn't have the luxury of T.P.!

If they said, hey over there in the bombay is an atomic bomb, I would have to crap too.

When Bernie Poppert was giving a tour inside the Enola Gay to several of the original crew members a few years ago one of them pointed to this



And said "Do you know what we called this?"

"We called it the Tokyo Bomb Sight"

Certainly not politically correct by today's standards.

'KEEP ‘EM FLYING…FOR HISTORY!'

If any one is interested, the latest "In Action, Walk Around" series of paperback books features "Jack's Hack" as the subject of the walk around.
A lot more photos are in the book.
Author is Dennis Savage, a long time museum volunteer who helped to champion the 58th Bomb Wing to make NEAM it's home and restore the B-29.

A co-worker of mine, who happens to be of Italian descent, just recently mentioned something about that being the reason that Italian aircraft have windshield wipers on the inside of their windshields.

Awesome pix!
