Truman never ordered the use of the atomic bombs—but he did order atomic bombings to be stopped

When it comes to marking anniversaries of the atomic bomb, there are a few obvious choices. July 16, 1945, was the date of the Trinity test, the first nuclear explosion, and has been used by some as ...
