"We are going to scourge the Third Reich……" — Sir Arthur Harris, 1st Baronet
"We are going to scourge the Third Reich from end to end. We are bombing Germany city by city and ever more terribly in order to make it impossible for her to go in with the war. That is our object, and we shall pursue it relentlessly."
