Some claim it was a message to the Russians. By Feb 45 we were worried they were going to keep pushing into Europe, and maybe Dresden was an example of what we could do to Moscow if needed.

Why did you delete this post? It's good, I didn't mean to make light of the horrible tragedy, just to bring awareness to what happened to the women who survived. It was bad all around.

It was done to push Germany over the final impediment to surrendering. It was as if to say, give it up, we have a lot more bombs and targets.

Thinking the massive Russian casualties were message enough.
