It has been over 72 years since the US dropped atomic bombs on Japan during WWII and that means that the last of the generation that lived it are now nearing the end of their lives. Does increase the risk of another nuclear incident?

The present crop of politicians and military leaders have only whatever information they gained from school and no first hand knowledge of the devastation and consequences produced by an actual nuclear detonation. Does this increase the likelihood of another nuclear incident? Does it make no difference?

This is not a question about the possibility of Trump launching a nuclear strike but more about the generational view of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
