GEORGE R. CARON ENOLA GAY
(1919 - 1995) Tail gunner of the famed B-29 bomber Enola Gay. Facing the rear of the B-29, he was the first to see the mushroom cloud. Caron was given a camera at the last moment and snapped a roll of photographs as the mushroom cloud ascended. His photographs of the explosion were printed on millions of leaflets that were dropped over Japan the next day. Black-and-white portrait photograph of Caron signed in blue ink 'George R. Caron Tail Gunner - Enola Gay', 8 x 10 inches. Very good.
