May 8, 1884: Harry S. Truman (May 8, 1884 – December 26, 1972), the 33rd U.S. President, was born in Lamar, Missouri. He became president upon the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt in April of 1945. Two weeks after becoming president he was informed of the top secret atomic bomb project. In the war against Japan, an Allied invasion of Japan was being planned which would cost a minimum of 250,000 American lives. Truman then authorized the dropping of the bomb. On August 6, 1945, the atom bomb exploded over Hiroshima, followed by a second bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9. The next day, Japan sued for peace. Truman served as President until January of 1953. He was the last of nine U.S. Presidents who did not attend college. His straightforward, honest, no-nonsense style earned him the nickname, "Give 'em hell, Harry.".
