We have Leslie Groves Park right here in my hometown.

Leslie Groves Park was my launch point for inner tube trips down to Howard Amon. Then we’d have keggers at “Beer Falls” and “The Trees”. Great time growing up in Richland in the 70’s and 80’s. Go Bombers

I have always thought General Groves had a most difficult task, trying to herd those cats.

If you want to know what I mean, read Richard Feynman’s wildly entertaining book “Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman”

It is one of my favorite books, not just for the storytelling he does, but his historic view of what was going on, which I trust implicitly.
