There is an interesting thing about post-war bombing
and that is that, on the whole, it was based on British
WWII tactics more than anything else. The debate about
which force used the better tactics during WWII, the
RAF or the USAAF, is fairly pointless.

As far as tactics go, perhaps.

The RAF was attacking targets that couldn't help bring Germay closer to defeat,
certainly not in relation to the losses the RAF suffered.

At the time, both
did the best they could, and in the end they were both
reasonably successful.

The RAF was -not- successful. If not for the USAAF, they couldn't have
appeared over Germany at all after D-day.
