Benchley, in an article written for the New Yorker in 1953, mentions a conversation about current attitudes towards the war.  "Who's winning the war?" Roth asked me as I came in. "Search me," I said, and sat down. "I heard that in Guam the birdmen have a pool on it," Tampke said. "They got a million-dollar pool that says the war will be over by October. You can dip into it for any money you want." "Did they say October what year?" I asked. "I don't know," Tampke replied. "I just heard October."   Wednesday, July 25,1945 - 9 Days After Trinity An official bombing order is made for the first atomic weapon:  From http://www.dannen.com/decision/handy.html Thursday, July 26,1945 - 10 Days After Trinity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potsdam_Declaration https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mokusatsu  Friday, July 27,1945 - 11 Days After Trinity https://ancientwarhistory.com/the-final-days-of-imperial-japan-the-potsdam-declaration-soviet-intervention-and-japans-surrender/ https://www.trumanlibrary.gov/library/truman-papers/correspondence-harry-s-truman-bess-wallace-truman-1921-1959/july-27-1945 Saturday, July 28,1945 - 12 Days After Trinity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1945_Empire_State_Building_B-25_crash https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aioi_Bridge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroshima_Peace_Memorial Note: Dobashi is near to Koamicho https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Callaghan_(DD-792)
