Paul Warfield Tibbets Jr, commander of the Enola Gay, dead at 92.
Gen Tibbets had asked for no funeral nor headstone as he feared opponents of the bombing may use it as a place of protest, the friend, Gerry Newhouse, said.
If you wanna know why I often distance myself from "anti-war" organizations, even when I'm against the U.S. involvement in a specific conflict, that's one of the reasons.
