 The bomb caused significant destruction to the city of Hiroshima and its occupants.

 He is best known for being the weaponeer on the "Enola Gay", the aircraft which dropped the Little Boy atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan in 1945.
 To avoid the possibility of a nuclear explosion if the aircraft crashed and burned on takeoff, he decided to arm the bomb in flight.
 While the aircraft was "en route" to Hiroshima, Parsons climbed into the cramped and dark bomb bay, and inserted the powder charge and detonator.
 He was awarded the Silver Star for his part in the mission.
