Presidents Truman and Franklin Roosevelt flew in the "Sacred Cow"

The one on the other side of the road.

On August 6, 1945, Paul Tibbets flew an armed aircraft, named "Enola Gay", over Hiroshima, Japan, and dropped an atomic bomb, code-named "Little-Boy". On the ninth, Charles Sweeney flew an aircraft titled "Bockscar", over Nagasaki, Japan, and dropped "Fat Man".

The president adopted a policy of containment toward Soviet expansion and the spread of communism

Truman didn't graduate college (not enough funds to continue). He was vice president during WWII and after 82 days FDR died, leaving him unprepared to handle it.

He was handed a really big stick: the atomic bomb; and thrust into a war between Japan and the US, scared and unsure of himself, he chose to drop a bomb on Hiroshima and then Nagasaki, when Japan was debilitated and incapable of assault. He engaged the US in a premature Cold War by provoking bad relations with the Soviet Union, and trying to use the same power that Franklin Roosevelt had.

Truman's fair deal aimed to extend the New Deal's goals

Truman became president when FDR died. Truman was the VP. He had been US Senator before being FDR's running mate in 1944.

Keeping inflation under control was President Truman's greatest challenge in reconverting to peacetime economy. Truman was the 33rd U.S. President.

Did Harry S. Truman drive himself and Bess home to Missouri when he left office?

Many things happened but some of the highlights were dropping the atomic bomb on japan ending WW2.

Another very important thing that happened was the Berlin airlift airlifting supplies for a year to east Berlin and allowing ground acces into east Berlin once again.

Harry S. Truman was born in Lamar, Missouri, the county seat of Barton County, Missouri, in a small white frame house on May 8, 1884. The house is still standing and has been preserved as an historic landmark.

This question is pretty broad, given the requirement that one get into Truman's mind to determine what island he wanted to visit. During his lifetime, Truman visited several islands, including Hawaii and Britain. Likely, however, the question relates to Truman's October 11-18, 1950, trip to Wake Island in the Pacific Ocean to meet with General Douglas MacArthur, who was then in command of United Nations forces in Korea. Truman made the trip--much longer than MacArthur had to come from Korea--in order to meet face to face with MacArthur and obtain his assessment of the situation in Korea. Much has been made of the meeting--with speculation that MacArthur intended to force Truman's airplane to land first so that Truman would have to wait on MacArthur, not the other way around, and MacArthur's act of shaking the president's hand rather than saluting him when Truman came off his plane. Another island that Truman wanted to visit, and did visit several times during and after his presidency, was Key West, Florida. He stayed at the command headquarters at the Key West naval station, which became known as the Little White House. The building is now a museum. Altogether Truman made 11 trips to Key West during his presidency.

Yes, John Adams in Fact was an Isolationist. He was the 2nd President of the United States and vowed to continue the peace in which George Washington had worked hard. After leaving office, John Adams stated one of his greatest achievements as President, was keeping peace with the United States. Even after France pressuring him to enter a "pirate war" with the English. I hope this answers your question.

Most people think so. Even the Japanese were grateful for the bomb because they were so tired of the war. President Truman believed the bomb will end the war sooner and save a lot of lives.

No he was not, the President who was in a wheelchair was F.D. Roosevelt, he has polio.

Before Harry Truman became President of the United States he worked at a bank. He also worked at his family's farm.

No, the Dixiecrats did not support Truman. During the 1948 election period, it was a surprise when Truman won because Truman was a victim of bad publicity... he was very unpopular with the people and was always messing up.

And the Dixiecrats did not like Truman's policies.

Yes. He was an artillery officer in the Missouri national guard. In WW1 his regiment the 129th field artillery was attached to the 35th infantry division in France. When he retired from the national guard he held the rank of colonel.

Harry S Truman. His grandfathers, Anderson Shipp Truman and Solomon Young, could not agree on what Harry's middle name should be, and so Harry was given only a middle initial of "S", which stood for Solomon or Shipp, depending on which side of the family one asked.
