This photo can be used in two ways. First, it can introduce a basic lesson on the end of the Pacific campaign in World War II. However, it can also be used to introduce a discussion about whether or not the United States made the right decision in choosing to drop the atomic bomb and what effect it had on international relations during the Cold War. Students should be able to understand both sides of the atomic-bomb argument
