# Long description

A black-and-white photograph showing the aircraft Enola Gay and its crew. The photograph shows only the nose of the aircraft which is a shiny silver colour. The words ‘ENOLA GAY’ are clearly visible on the nose cone. In front of the nose of the aircraft are seven members of the crew of Enola Gay , wearing khaki uniforms. Some are looking towards the camera and smiling; others are looking at one another as though they are chatting and laughing together. Two of the men have their arms around one another, and one of the men has his hand on another’s shoulder.
