    One thing that I find haunting and awful is the last few German cities and towns that were bombed in the last months of the war.  By this time Germany was defeated, its cities in ruins, and its civilians in its eastern provinces being subjected to the brutal rule of the Soviets, and yet it was still essential to destroy German towns.  I can't remember the names, but there were two Bavarian towns that were among the last to be heavily bombed, in mid to late April, and at that point one must really ask what was the point.
