Does a nazi putting a gun to your head and telling you to work making ammunition makes you a nazi? Because that's what happened. Forced conscription happened. The world isn't black and white. Allies committed war crimes too. There were good people forced into bad situations too.

The only way this makes them the good guys is if the note means they sabotaged the bomb making. Everything else surrounding it is horrid.

EDIT : The text can be interpreted as either : "We sabotaged the bombs for you" or "we don't have explosives to put in the bombs". From my understanding, it could go either way.

It's very obviously "we sabotaged the bombs."

Honestly, you need to take a step back and help yourself here. Either recognize that your interpretation of reality is skewed and/or you’re just not intelligent. Either way, adjust accordingly.

Basic knowledge of history / how the war went would show you that it is "we sabotaged the bombs because we have a gun to our heads and cannot do more".
