Harry Truman did not want to lose thousands of soldiers in the Pacific Front. The Americans had had experimented on a a highly desrtuctive weapon long before, and made the first Atomic bombs -the "Fat Man" and the "Little Boy". Previously, during the "island-hopping" e. g. , the Americans lost 20,000 men to recapture eight square miles. So, it was obvious, that the Japanese would not surrender. Truman wanted to end the war by repelling the Japanese to continue fighting. Reasons summarised:
Harry s. truman approved the dropping of an atomic bomb on japan.
The atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War 2.
