Title: Operation Thunderclap: The Bombing Of Dresden Lieutenant Colonel Richard A. Conroy
Description: , Carlisle Barracks, Pa., 1989. 61, , Softcover. Zustand: 2. Precision bombing of military targets was a reality in World War II by the end of 1943. By February, 1945, the war in Europe was nearly over. Why, then at that last date, was the city of Dresden destroyed by allied firebombing? In addressing this question, the Dresden case study examines the evolution of bombing practices on both sides during the war in Europe. Both British and American bombing policies are scrutinized. Objectives, both military and political served by the Dresden bombing, are explained. Public reaction to the bombings in the U.K. and the U.S. are discussed as well as the reaction of both Governments to those reactions. Finally, the study examines the doctrines of Just War, draws conclusions and provides commentary.
