Overview

Much of this story is based on facts. The rest a story-tellers license. To begin the Tuskegee Airmen were not the first African American Fighter Pilots. Second, the atomic bomb lost on 14 February 1950 when a Convair B-36 out of Carswell Air Force Base crashed in northern British Columbia after jettisoning a Mark 4 nuclear bomb was not the only unaccounted for.When the second world war had concluded, the American people were led to believe that the two Atomic Bombs dropped were the sole factor influencing Japan's decision to surrender unconditionally. Another very imposing factor was that Russia declared war on Japan. It was later made public through the press that following the two atomic bombs there was continued fire-bombings of major Japanese cities. This was interpreted as the Americans only had two bombs ready to be dropped. In fact, the Manhattan Project had prepared enough material to produce nineteen bombs. This bomb and a second one like it were delivered to Tinian by C-54 Skymaster cargo planes. There were still sixteen unassembled bombs like the Fat Man back in America if needed. Yes, after the Japanese surrendered on August 15, 1945 there was one remaining bomb on Tinian Island. This story is about the third bomb on Tinian that was never disclosed. It was years before anyone even thought there might have been a third bomb on Tinian. The military personnel on Tinian who knew there was a third bomb in the bunker were told that it was flown out to the Island of Hawaii but that the plane crashed into the sea. In reality, the plane that picked up the second Fat Man bomb or third atomic bomb from the Army Air Corps was not an American plane. The C-54 Skymaster had been given to French General Charles De Gaul by order from President Harry S Truman. The General used it for his personal transportation. It was repainted with phony markings to look like an American plane. So why didn't Charles DE Gaul get his plane back with the stolen bomb aboard? This book will answer that question.Another question is what happened to the plane's crew. If the bomb was stolen from America by a couple of clever French plots what happened to the French pilots. An interesting question. This question is also answered in the book.So, what is the purpose of writing this book? America has been told over and over that Vietnam was fought to stop China/communism from spreading in Indochina. Indochina is a collection of Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and Burma. General Eisenhower expressed, the spread of China/communism in Vietnam, to President Truman as a domino effect. Later President Eisenhower said, in an interview given after his term as President had ended, he did not subscribe to the domino theory. Based on his military leaders concerns Truman was said to have sponsored France's post war return to reestablish Indochina and stop China/communism from spreading in Vietnam. The whole line of deception and lies to the American people started right there and continued for over twenty-five years. The mystery has never been disclosed.By supporting the French, he snubbed Ho Chi Minh who prior to this action had a particular love for America. In his declaration of Independence for Vietnam in 1946, he took the wording right out of the American Declaration of Independence. President Truman got congress to provide funds to support France in their occupation efforts in Vietnam. America was paying seventy five percent of France's expenditures during what was called the first Indochina war. That war pitted the Viet Minh against the French. That war ended in 1954 when the French decided to leave Vietnam following the massacre in the valley of Diem Bien Fhu. The public was led to believe that the French fought for eight years in Vietnam to allow the Michelin Tire Company, French Coal Companies and Rice Importers to continue to exploit the resources of Vietnam. In fact there was very little latex being harvested during the eight years, very little coa
