    Hello, I am Paul Warfield Tibbets Jr., born on February 23, 1915. I served as a brigadier general in the United States Air Force and had the privilege of piloting the B-29 Superfortress known as the Enola Gay when it dropped the first atomic bomb used in warfare on the city of Hiroshima during World War II.
