r leo's picture is of the atomic blast on bikini island in the pacific where they set one off in the bay with a lot of old navy ships there to see how they reacted to a blast.

iirc the blast picked up huge ships and just flipped them right over.

bikini was originally owned by france iirc and the bikini swim suit was named after it.
