There was a very good series of episodes on the Military Channel about the B29, Tibbets, LeMay and the atomic bomb missions. At the time of the filming only the navigator, Dutch Van Kirk was still alive. He is very articulate in his explanations and he did indeed point out that many more people were killed by the fire bombing, but he did not think that fire bombing alone would have stopped the war. He was of the opinion that the spectacle of the atomic bombs is what finally caused them to surrender.
