Apollo 11. I would rather see an achievement than the destruction of the other three.

Since I'm Christian and these are the options available, the 10 plagues and the release sounds very interesting to witness. there has always been speculation on that event.

Allied Invasion.
Some of the pretext was BS, but where else would you see so many sacrificing so much for so many. The results, both horrific and glorious are histor/y/ic.

This one is tough for me to actually choose an answer. All four of them would have been interesting to witness live.

D-Day, just cause that is actually something to see in your own eyes. The plagues are a nice tale, the a-bombs are kinda short lived events and Apollo 11 is very difficult to watch in its entirty + hardly anything actually happens.

It hurt to make the choice but I went with Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Each of the choices are places I would feel amazed to experience but there is a sort of drive for me to see humanity at its most destructive... most deadly, in not only what the bombs did, but also what horror we had just created, and if we would face the bomb in a future World War. However, it is in this experience that we can remember, be amazed... and thankful for the acts of kindness and sheer unity that we show as humanity in time of need.
To see us at our best... we must experience ourselves at our worst.
That is my belief.

Since I am a World War II history buff got to go with Allied Normandy. Shouldn't have chosen Stalingrad? That wouldve been more epic for me to witness, urban witness with nearly the whole city destroyed.

The 10 plagues.
I already saw Normandy (thanks to Steven Spielberg), as with Apollo (dunno who directed it). Hiroshima is not something I'd want to see as it would haunt me forever.
The plagues now...that would be a thing. not only an era far away, but it would actually proof that there is indeed a God, and I'd become a Christian (or I'd stay an atheist).

Following some uncoordinated event, this is the official policy of Cadana Pajan. Our nation (or I) will not follow orders from anyone, unless:
1) it has been communicated clearly to me from "higher up the hierarchy" that this individual is indeed an official for IRON.
2) The orders are given, or can be verified, through the forums.

Cool. A poll I find interesting.
The bombing of Japan would just be horrific. It was a justified evil.
Apollo 11 would be visually spectacular... but would not change anything.
Normandy invasion... I would be too tempted to alter history.
Now that 10 plagues one would answer many questions. That's the big one, and significant.
