DRAGON'S TEETH

With the arrival of World War II, Ferlinghetti was forced to abandon his writing and, like many other men at that time, was sent to war. He was an officer in the Navy, and was sent to Nagasaki only a short six weeks after it was bombed, which some say led to his pacifist consciousness. “Before I was at Nagasaki, I was a good American boy. I was an Eagle Scout; I was the commander of a sub-chaser in the Normandy Invasion. Anyone who saw Nagasaki would suddenly realize that they’d been kept in the dark by the United States government as to what atomic bombs can do.”(Ferlinghetti, http://www.sanfranciscoreader.com/interviews/ferlinghetti%20interview.html)
