I have had conversations with a Lancaster radio operator who was the great uncle of one of school friends.
He mourned the loss of so many lives but, was adamant that he 'did his bit' and his mates 'did theirs'. He took pride in his service and would always say he was damned lucky to survive.
The allied bombing campaign did reduce parts of Germany to rubble and it took all our countries combined resources to do that.
To be so dismissive of BC is wrong ( to put it mildly)
Cheers
