Here's a better one:
"On May 5, 1945, a pregnant woman and five children were killed by a balloon
bomb while they were on a church picnic near Bly, Ore. Other than this
incident, the balloons caused only a few small fires and a minor power
outage at the Hanford facility in Washington State, where ironically,
plutonium for the first atomic bomb was being prepared."
