The Atom Strikes 1945 - Historical footage from Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Shortly after the end of the war an American mission was sent to Japan, to report on the destruction wrought by the atomic bombs. The mission, organized by the Manhattan Engineer District, included engineer and medical officers and a few scientists. This film portrays some of the devastation they witnessed,.

I think this video is an important historic source, so i uploaded it to mininova.
