Watch Warfile: Hiroshima & Nagasaki 1945

As Japan stubbornly clung to the idea of victory at the end of the Second World War, the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki could have had no idea that the cities in which they lived would become the targets of a new and devastating weapon - the atomic bomb. With the use of wartime archive footage and American military film the effects of the bomb on the towns and people are examined as well as a brief look at how the US prepared themselves for the real possibility of an atomic attack on home soil.
