Winston Churchill - Churchill decided to restrict area bombing and sent a memorandum to General Ismay

Time: Wednesday Mar 28, 1945

Place: United Kingdom

Details: On 28 March, he decided to restrict area bombing and sent a memorandum to General Ismay for the Chiefs of Staff Committee: The destruction of Dresden remains a serious query against the conduct of Allied bombing..... I feel the need for more precise concentration upon military objectives..... rather than on mere acts of terror and wanton destruction, however impressive.
