Best Answer

The ultimate responsibility lies with Harry S Truman, then president of the US.

Paul Tibbets was the pilot and commander of the 'Enola Gay', the B-29 superfortress, which dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima.

Charles W Sweeney piloted 'Bockscar', a similar aircraft, which dropped the second bomb on Nagasaki, its secondary target, Kokura was the primary target but was obscured by smoke from the conventional bombing of nearby Yawata.
