  • A proposito del bombardamento di Dresda (febbraio 1945) Harris scrive:
    (EN)

    «I know that the destruction of so large and splendid a city at this late stage of the war was considered unnecessary even by a good many people who admit that our earlier attacks were as fully justified as any other operation of war. Here I will only say that the attack on Dresden was at the time considered a military necessity by much more important people than myself.»

    (IT)

    «Io so che la distruzione di una così grande e splendida città verso la fine della guerra era considerata superflua anche da quelle molte brave persone che ammettono che i nostri attacchi iniziali erano pienamente giustificati come ogni altra operazione bellica. Qui io voglio soltanto dire che l'attacco su Dresda allora fu considerato una necessità militare da persone molto più importanti di me.»
