Actually he was a captain in the artillery in WWI which probably gave him the necessary insight to use the bomb on Hiroshima as another form of artillery which can be non discriminating in its effects; the next step down was the British Tallboy... otherwise known as the "cookie' over Berlin. But the coolest one is still old George Washington who started one war at Ohio and ended another at Yorktown and managed to get sworn in wearing his Masons apron. THey hadn't invented the Medal of Honor nor the Nobel Prize as with Teddy R. for whom the ubiquitous bear IS named. BULLY!
