No other regular crew member of the Enola Gay did either on that particular morning in August 1945. Lewis knew that the plane was carrying a powerful bomb but had no idea of the actual power that "Little Boy" had. Lewis had flown the first six missions of the previously unnamed B-29, but only Tibbets, the two flight weaponeers, radar countermeasure expert Jacob Beser and perhaps bombardier Thomas Ferebee knew what the bomb the Enola Gay was carrying was capable of.
The movie was very interesting, although Lewis's asking "What is that funny name (Enola Gay) doing on my plane?" is shown in a more pleasant light than the actual incident, in which Lewis was very angry at Tibbets being named to take over the Hiroshima mission. There was no recording of the crew's comments, and Lewis's "My God" was conveyed in written form only. Intercoms on a B-29 were used by pushing a button to talk and releasing it to listen. So he put an impromptu addendum on his written statement 10 years later. Lewis had only written "My God," but his attitude toward nuclear weapons had changed due to the daily fears of Americans during the Cold War that the Soviets were going to nuke a U.S. The B-29 was involved in experimental projects, and set many records of her own.

It was not until 1955 when Lewis, then an employee of a candy company, told a Japanese minister that he had written, "My God, what have we done?" in his journal. Listen to Enola Gay MP3 Song by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark from the album New Gold. Enola Gay You should have stayed at home yesterday Ah-ha words can't describe The feeling and the way you lied These games you play They're going to end in more than tears some day Ah-ha Enola Gay It shouldn't ever have to end this way It's eight fifteen And that's the time that it's always been We got your message on the radio Conditions normal and you're coming home Enola Gay Is mother proud. Lewis wrote "My God" in his journal when he saw the brilliant flash of light that filled the plane and felt the shock wave from the bomb 31 seconds later. trimmerb's allegation that "the plane's intercom" caught co-pilot Robert Lewis saying, "My God, what have we done?" is a total falsehood.
Some of the reviews of this movie are more fabrication than fact.
