So the bombing was not a "big disappointment."
The Bomber Barons promised to win the war without having to invade at all. When you consider that the RAF had 55,000 KIA, the same number of officers killed in World War One, it has to be a disappointment. The same thing is true of the Americans. A lot of effort and relatively little return. Walt |

A lot of effort and relatively little return. Walt So what would have the level of German armament production have been WITHOUT the strategic bombing offensive? Why are you so determined to denigrate the RAF? Are you related to that Brennan creep? Both RAF and 8th AF Bomber Commands did a tough job to the best of their ability. To try to prove one was "better" or "worse" than the other is ridiculous. Comparisons are odious, and, on the available evidence, so are you. Just like a child calling names.
