The stated objective of Bomber Command during WWII, according to the Casablanca Directive of 1943, was to ‘participate in the progressive destruction and dislocation of the German military, industrial and economic system’ as well as to ‘undermine the morale of the German people to the point where their capacity for armed resistance is fatally weakened’. Pondered from a moral perspective, these directives are wholly questionable, but during the allied bombing raid of Pforzheim in 1945, both objectives were emphatically met. Just 11 weeks after the event, Germany surrendered, signaling the end of the Second World War.
