The firebombings were also very necessary. Conventional war tactics were not going to make them surrender until every last citizen in that country was dead. Midway took away their ability to conduct offensive operations for the rest of the war, yet they kept fighting for another three years after that.


In 3 years, we went from the small Doolittle Raid in '42 with minimal impact to a mission in '45 with over 300 bombers that killed over 100,000 people.

The growth of the American war machine was absolutely astonishing.
