It was not until 1955 when Lewis, then an employee of a candy company, told a Japanese minister that he had written, 'My God, what have we done?' in his journal. Lewis wrote 'My God' in his journal when he saw the brilliant flash of light that filled the plane and felt the shock wave from the bomb 31 seconds later. trimmerb's allegation that 'the plane's intercom' caught co-pilot Robert Lewis saying, 'My God, what have we done?' is a total falsehood. Some of the reviews of this movie are more fabrication than fact.
