Bomber Harris1989

[responding to criticism over the destruction of Dresden, Germany]

Sir Arthur 'Bomber' Harris:
We've been accused of murder. What would we have been accused of had we let Hitler and *his* bloody gang win the bloody war? As for Dresden, it's simple, any psychiatrist can explain it: it's all to do with German brass bands and Dresden shepherdesses! All I can say is that all the German towns *put together* aren't worth the bones of a British grenadier!
