So Ft bliss will be giving ft hood a run for its money with the most soldiers stationed there and most people on base

Is Hiroshima or Nagasaki a military base?

If you are asking if these cities represented Military targets then the answer is no. The nature of the weapon (The Atomic bomb) meant there must be massive civillian loss of life. It does rather beg the question is it a million times more wrong to kill a million people than it is to kill one ? I'm thinking the US position at the time was that ending the war justified the means, even if the implications of the effect of the means were unknown. There is much to suggest the Japanese would have surrendered anyway, but how many more would die before they did, on both the Japanese & Allied side ? It is an emotive subect, warfare, political decision making & what to do for the best results. I think the deaths of what was seen as the enemy counted for very little at the time. The idea of the invasion of the Japanese homeland & the resulting casualties, given their extremely tennacious defence of various islands & island groups over the past 2 years & more, suggested very strongly indeed the US (primarily) would lose a great many young men in combat. Put simply it was a price the US thought itself unprepared to pay.
