Re: Dresden casualties and an Atom bomb target?

Hello Ruy,
I agree totally that the raid from a war winning aim was pointless, however i think it was more aimed at stopping the war running over against the Soviets after the soon to be German surrender. From a bombing point of view the raid is fascinating, it was only one in a long run of RAF city busting raids but, unfortunatley for the Dresdeners it all came together with ideal weather conditions on that night.
I still would like to know the new ideas on losses in the city
