While the United States began conventional bombing of Japan as early as 1942, the mission did not begin in earnest until mid-1944. Between April 1944 and August, 1945, an estimated 333,000 Japanese people were killed and 473,000 more wounded in air raids. A single firebombing attack on Tokyo in March 1945 killed more than 80,000 people. Truman later remarked, “Despite their heavy losses at Okinawa and the firebombing of Tokyo, the Japanese refused to surrender. The saturation bombing of Japan took much fiercer tolls and wrought far and away more havoc than the atomic bomb. Far and away. The firebombing of Tokyo was one of the most terrible things that ever happened, and they didn't surrender after that although Tokyo was almost completely destroyed.”

In August 1945, it was clear that conventional bombing was not effective.

Which shows a president's involvement in civic life?
Basile [38]

Answer:

An example of a president's involvement in civic life is throwing the first pitch at a baseball game.

Explanation:

First of all, let's see all the answers a) is wrong because it is a message the president has to give to the congress of the United States and it is a task considered in his duties as president.

Second, b) is correct because throwing the first pitch at a baseball game is not an activity considered into his presidential duties or responsibilities.

Third, c) is incorrect because even though it doesn't have the presidential duties involved in it. It does require him or her to adopt a formal posture in the camera and be prepared for the topics because as a president he or she has to preserve his or her presidential image. The president is not allowed to behave inappropriately. It is a leadership role and it is required to behave with high moral standards.

Fourth, d) appointing an ambassador is incorrect because it forms part of his presidential duties and responsibilities.
