Summary[edit]

Description
English: Chantilly, Va. (Oct. 23, 2004) – Recreating his famous World War II photograph, Retired U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Paul W. Tibbetts waves from the cockpit of the “Enola Gay” at the National Air and Space Museum’s Steven F Udvar-Hazy Center. Tibbetts, along with the navigator Theodore “Dutch” Van Kirk and assistant weaponeer Morris R. Jeppson, were invited to climb inside their old aircraft for the first time in 50 years. The three crew members are the last surviving members of the original twelve-man crew that flew the historic World War II atomic bomb mission. “Enola Gay” is the Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the first atomic bomb, “Little Boy,” on the Japanese city of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, forcing the surrender of the Japanese and the end of World War II.
