Suppose the war in Europe drags on longer or the atomic bomb is ready 6 months earlier than IOTL. This gives whoever is President at the time the opportunity to deploy the weapon against the Germans, the Japanese, or both.
What would an attack against the Germans have been like? What would the target have been, and how would the target site be perceived in the resulting Cold War? After all, it would likely be a no-mans-land location right near the eventual border between the Western Allies and the Russians.
I wouldn't be surprised if there's an immediate ban on nuclear weapons given the use of chemical weapons 30 years earlier and the fact that the destroyed area is right in the middle of Europe instead of somewhere off in Japan. After all, both sides can just go over there and see what happened.
