A Trion man was one of the two persons who last

ished in the crash of their plane in Tennessee.
Charles Barrett, a pilot is employed by Rome

Chattooga Countians who saw the NBC White
Paper television report Tuesday night on the drop
ping of the atomic bomb will be interested to know
that an engineer aboard the plane taking out the first
homb was a friend of Summerville’s Graves Myers,
who retired two years ago after a military career.
Myers says the engineer, who was among tne
crew as shown on television Tuesday night, told him
the men didn’t know what they were going to drop
but they knew it was something quite different from
the usual bombs they’d been dropping on Japan.
“He said each man was given a pair of real dark
glasses and told to put them on as soon as the bomb
was dropped and not to look down at the site,” recalls
Myers,
There was a tremendous burst of light when the
bomb exploded, the Summerville man was told, and
the crew then knew that indeed they had done some
thing historic.
“He said they were all so shaky, though, they
could hardly guide the plane back in,” said Myers.
The plane encountered no opposition from Japanese
planes along the way, he said.
* * * ♦
Myers, a retired colonel, and his family spent
Christmas in Washington, D. C. While there, he said
he talked to a general and they discussed the situa
tion in Viet Nam.
“He expressed the opinion that pretty well sums
up what most high military figures seem to think,"
said Myers. “He said we couldn’t win in Viet Nam and
we couldn’t get out.”—Hß
silver bowl at one end and
at the other end coffee was
served from a silver service.
Silver dishes contained indi
vidual bridal cakes, mints
and nuts.
The bride’s table in an ele
vated area was similarly
covered and held a three
tiered white wedding cake
topped with fresh orchids
and encircled with white
carnations and greenery.
White tapers burned in sil
ver candelabra on either
side and the table back
ground was of tapers in
standing candelabra.
The bride’s book was kept
on a table decorated with a
smaller arrangement match
ing that of the refreshment
table.
After the ceremony Mr.
and Mrs. Powell left for a
wedding trip to Fernandina,
Fla. For traveling the bride
wore a pink wool suit and an
orchid corsage. They will re
side at 531 University Drive,
Athens.
