Bombing Germany

1ile ldCt tfaC american bOmDerS-
Flying Fortresses and Liberators-
have made their first attack on
targets within Germany proper is of
more than passing significance
This assault, carried out in day
light against Emden and Wilhelms-
haven, marks another forward step
in the development of our own bonn
bardment tactics-a program based
on the belief that the best results
can be obtained through systematic
high altitude bombing, relying on
our excellent bombsight for accuracy
and on speed, armor and firepoWer
for security. The history of the
controversy over these tactics, as
opposed to the British development
of mass night attacks, which depend
for results on weight of bombs rather
than accuracy, has been an inter-
esting one
Early in the war we sent a few
old model Flying Fortresses to
England. They were far from ready
for combat, and proved lamentably
inadequate when sent into action.
For long time thereafter the Amer
ican bomber and American bombing
tactics were viewed with marked dis
favor in the British Isles. Then,
after our entry into the war, newer
and better models of American
four-engine bombers began to cross
the Atlantic. They were slow in
getting into action, for it takes time
to prepare the ground organization
and to perfect the other steps neces-
sary to successful combat participa-
ton. But, finally. small numbers of
these planes were ready and took
part in attacks over occupied France.
According to all reports reaching
this country. they proved brilliantly
successful, but skepticism persisted.
It was said that the opposition en-
countered in France was relatively
weak, that the American planes re-
quired excessive fighter protection,
and that they would never be able
to make the longer trips, unescorted,
into Germany against first-class
German opposition. The concept of
daylight precision bombing over
Germany should be dropped, it was
said, and the American bomber
strength applied to night attacks
with the British.
This weeks attack on Wilhelnls-
haven and Emden was the first an
swer to these critics. AS yet, not a
great deal is known about these raids.
Only three bombers were lost, but
since the total number of planes
taking part was not divulged, this
may or may not have been an unduly
high percentage. Nor was it dis
closed whether the bombers had
fighter protection all of the way, al
though the presumption is that they
did not, since the flight would have
been a long one for fighters. But,
whatever may be the case as to these
aspects of the raid, the significant
fact is that our Air Force has DEM
onstrated that vital targets within
Germany can be bombed in daylight.
Given greater strength in numbers
and added combat experience, these
American flyers also may be ex-
pected to demonstrate that this can
be done successfully, and on scale
that should silence the critics once
