  • ALT1: ... that Fleet Admiral William D. Leahy (pictured) offered his resignation after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

    Three and a half years after. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 07:54, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

    I think you mean three and a half months before? If he offered his resignation on April 12 and the first bombing was August 6... Regardless, yep, that's my bad! I read "atomic bomb" and skimmed the paragraph and didn't put it together. I'll try to come back with another hook. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 09:14, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
