U.S.S Nevada- The Ship That Wouldn't Go Down Til The End

 



After J. Robert Oppenheimer's first nuclear tests (nicknamed the Trinity tests), the United States conducted a second test for their nuclear weapons.
But this time in the Marshall Islands- and on an old retired warship from both World Wars- named the U.SS Nevada.
Luckily, the warship survived the impact of the nuclear tests on it.

Unfortunately, a few years later or so, it was decommissioned after it was finally sunk during a naval training exercise.

Hiroshima to Nagasaki

  There was a Japanese man who survived the bombings of Hiroshima and then moved to Nagasaki before surviving another one there too.
