Roosevelt's 1939 appeal to refrain from bombing civilians was largely a political ploy, assuming that Britain and France would agree and that Hitler would not. Hitler, not for the first time, surprised him by accepting. See Tami Davis Biddle, Rhetoric and Reality in Air Warfare.

"Gone," he writes, "was the squeamishness about attacking Germany, gone was any sense of a negotiated peace or phony war," 36.

Richards argues rather generously that "though critics in recent years have tended to regard 'destroying morale' as a euphemism for 'killing,' it was no part of this policy deliberately to slaughter civilians. Heavy civilian casualties would inevitably be involved, but the intention was to make it difficult or impossible for civilians, many of whom were an essential part of the war machine, to remain at their industrial and administrative jobs." The quote is from 85.

Overy argues that Harris had not "the slightest doubt that 'morale' was a hopelessly ill-thought-out objective, a 'counsel of despair'" and that he had "no confidence that German morale was as brittle as his colleagues hoped." Overy, Why the Allies Won, 113. Harris, according to Hastings, "believed that there were no short cuts to defeating Germany from the air.

The search for accuracy, for a "tight bomb pattern," was never ending. Given the relatively crude technology of the period and the operational realities of bad weather and enemy action, however, "precision" was an elusive goal. See Stephen L. McFarland, America's Pursuit of Precision Bombing, 1910-1945 (Washington, DC: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1995), 170-90. Even under the best of conditions, the Eighth Air Force estimated that by the last quarter of 1943, only twenty-seven percent of all bombs dropped fell within one thousand feet of the aiming point, forty-eight percent within two thousand feet. The numbers crept upward in 1944 but were still less than fifty percent within one thousand feet.

While arguing that the Battle of Berlin "obviously reduced Germany's war effort and made a contribution to victory," Middlebrook concludes that "the extent of the achievements at Berlin was not sufficient either to satisfy the aims set for the battle - breakdown of civil morale and destruction so great that the normal life of Berlin would cease - or to justify the bomber casualties. The cost was too high in relation to the results."

The United States Strategic Bombing Survey (USSBS), The Effects of Strategic Bombing on the German Morale, 2 vols., (Washington, DC: USSBS Morale Division, 1947, vol. 1). For the summary results, see 1:1-3. The USSBS's study of German morale was compiled by the Morale Division to determine "the direct and indirect effects of the bombing upon the attitudes, behavior, and health of the civilian population, with particular reference to its effect upon the willingness and capacity of the bombed population to give effective and continued support to the war effort." The USSBS based its conclusions on captured Gestapo reports (Stimmungsberichte), civilian letters, and interviews with 3,711 German civilians. These interviews were conducted in German in 1945, and although the questions ultimately related to the effects of bombing, the interviews offer a rich - and virtually untapped - source for analyzing social life in wartime Germany. They are not multiple-choice or short answer but far-ranging, even rambling interviews, and although one obviously must consider the circumstances (German citizens being interviewed by occupation forces), they strike me as remarkably frank and useful.

SD report, July 14, 1944, in Heinz Boberach, ed., Meldungen aus dem Reich. Die geheimen Lageberichte des Sicherheitsdienstes der SS 1938-1945, 17 vols., (Herrsching: Pawlak, 1984) 17:6,650-51. The monthly situation report in October 1944 for München-Oberbayern echoed that sentiment: "Concerns are heightened by the new terror attacks on Munich, the increasing harassing attacks by single aircraft on trains, farms, and individuals. The population is also very impressed by the orderly parade-like flights of the enemy air force over our area, which are taken as a sign of the weakness of our air forces." Report of October 7, 1944. BHStA, MA 106-695.

USSBS, Schedule B Interviews, Numbers 61294 and 61154, NARA, RG 243. Only one-third of those interviewed admitted to blaming the Allies for the bombing; almost half did not. USSBS, The Effects of Strategic Bombing on German Morale, 20. A common complaint was that the Nazis never gave accurate accounts of casualties from the raids: "The press never gave the correct number of casualties, and never pictured the true state of mind here. Rather they sought to veil the truth, which was the people had broken down completely and believed that the war could never be brought to a successful end." Resentment also mounted that Goebbels tended to emphasize the destruction of Germany's cultural heritage, rather than casualties. "He could afford to talk that way, for he was sitting quite safely in his bunker and did not have to suffer and worry for his life."
