An amazing thing that i personally found by reading the book by John Cornwell i talk about in the topic "War literature."

Here, the reference date is January 12, but as i cannot post that day i post it today.


January 12, 1942

Dr. Lytle S. Adams, a friend of the First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, sends a letter to the White House, in which he advocates the use of " bats bombs " in the war against Japan. After project approval by President Roosevelt, tests will be conducted until 1944, when the project is finally abandoned because considered moving too slowly in comparison to the Manhattan Project.
