Re: The momentous cost of Bomber Command.
Interesting thread, can I also throw into the pot another thing to consider.
Without wishing to travel into the emotive subject of Dresden too deep as it generally ends in a big argument, I am in favour of the theory that Dresden was mainly to show the Russians that the massive city destroying capability of BC existed and would be unleashed against them if they carried on into France when Germany was beaten.
The cost has been pointed out but what cost can you put on winning a war?
