Describes Nagasaki
Letters from Pfc Dallas Bailey to his wife, the former Achsa Kinney of this city, now in Winc hester Indiana and from her brother S2C Donald Kinney, son of Mrs W. A. Kinney, south Union S treet, appeared in a recent issue of the Winchester paper describing their stations. Pfc Bail ey is stationed in Nagasaki, the first Japanese city to be hit by the atomic bomb, and seama n Kinney is on Guam. PfcBailey said in part:
"We are now about two miles from where the atomic bomb was dropped. Of course, one cannot ent er that area and it cannot be cleaned out. The stench at night is sickening, rotting bodies , burning buildings and animals, all together. A few bodies have floated down the river, bloa ted beyond all description. I don't believe these people thought there were as many ships an d trucks in the world as they have seen since Sunday. Although poor, they seem amazed at th e treatment they are getting.They are very willing to work and some of them are very strong d espite the fact that most of them are less than 5 feet in height."
Note: Dallas received his promotion to Corporal 22Sept 45, so this would have been written be fore then.
