re: #268 000G

the heavy industry was located in the suburbs, the allies managed to slightly damage some light industry in the city at the price of tens of thousands of civilians. what production capacity were those light factories running at even?

If Dresden was incinerated, the destruction of any industry would have been more than ‘light’. Like ball-bearings, fire-control optics are a choke-point for military production.

re: #272 SpaceJesus

the suburbs had some military potential, the city center itself had little, that is why the city was largely untouched for the majority of the war.

By Feb 1945, we were pretty well out of untouched targets. Don’t get me wrong—this was a terror raid, designed to crush morale and bring the whole slaughter to an end.
