George Allen served in the US Armed Forces and flew B-29s in the air force during World War Two. He did not see action, but was in Alamogordo, New Mexico, when the Trinity Test was conducted and witnessed the explosion from afar. He later shared his thoughts on the Manhattan Project's effects on the war and the change in his attitudes towards war.
