Bombing of Dresden Pic
On the 13th February 1945, 773 Avro Lancasters bombed Dresden. During the next two days the USAAF sent over 527 heavy bombers to follow up the RAF attack. Dresden was nearly totally destroyed. As a result of the firestorm it was afterwards impossible to count the number of victims. Recent research suggest that 35,000 were killed but some German sources have argued that it was over 100,000. In the picture we see victims of the Dresden bombing raid.  · |

Re: Bombing of Dresden Pic
I read alot of stuff on WWII and I think this was something our allied forces could have laid back on a little bit. But i guess it doesn't compare much to the millions of Jews that were killed for no reason at all.

Re: Bombing of Dresden Pic
Dresden was bombed much more than three times this was just the start. Dresden's manufacturing capability was down for about one week hardly a destroyed city. Guess this is what happens when you fuck with the British people for toooooo longgggg. What's that noise???  Just saw a Documentary on this. They are thinking 50,000 now. Dresden was best known for a transportation hub. The method and intensity was questioned. Phosphorus bombs were used in a different manner than before. The bombs was part of a whole allied air shift strategy to try to create firestorms. Once this was perfected. Lamay's ass was sent to the pacific and see what it would do to the Japs. The result was anything the size of Columbus, Ohio and above was completely destroyed at the minimum of 50 percent of city. Long before they touched off the big ones. wolfie |
