" Regarded by some of his detractors as little short of a war criminal, and as a war-winning hero by his admirers, Sir Arthur Harris, Bomber Command’s wartime Commander-in-Chief, remains an extremely controversial figure.
Sometimes vilified as being the very symbol of Bomber Command’s war against Germany, Harris has been blamed for the massive slaughter of German civilians and for the wanton and wholesale destruction of Germany’s towns and cities, in what is remembered by some as having been an ineffective and ultimately pointless campaign, and one which led to the loss of thousands of Allied lives."
