041023-N-0295M-004 Chantilly, Va. (Oct. 23, 2004) - Pilot and retired U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Paul W. Tibbets, center, assistant weaponeer Morris R. Jeppson, left, and navigator Theodore "Dutch" Van Kirk, right, pose for a photo after touring the interior of their old aircraft for the first time in 50 years at the National Air and Space Museum's Steven F Udvar-Hazy Center. At the time of the picture they were the last surviving members of the original twelve-man crew that flew the historic World War II atomic bomb mission. "Enola Gay" is the Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the first atomic bomb, "Little Boy," on the Japanese city of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, forcing the surrender of the Japanese and the end of World War II.
