    I have a book on how to make an atomic bomb somewhere. The book has other items and recopies too.

    The section on the A-bomb began with "find a suitable source of Uranium-238 isotope. I lost interest after that.

    Much of the fissile material for "The Bombs" came from a surrendered German U-Boat that was transporting it to (IIRC Japan) but never made it because of the Nazi surrender.
    I thought that the material came from the Belgian Congo and Northern Canada.
