(VO continuing over factory workers) And now in 1943 our production soldiers are moving to the offensive. Giant bombers like these massive Lancasters, are rolling off our production lines. In a war between the factories will now be those who are able to carry the greatest weight of bombs & drop them on the enemy. Thus, and thus alone, will the air power of the United Nations bring that increasing volume of attack against the enemy which will help us bring the war to a happy conclusion.” 01:05:46 Title: Dover, June 1940.

But behind that cloud lies the whole massive power of the United States of America. They sowed the wind & now they are going to reap the whirlwind. There are a lot of people who say that bombing can never win a war; well my answer to that is its never been tried yet & we shall see. Germany clinging more & more desperately to her widespread conquests, and even seeking foolishly for more, will make a most interesting initial experiment. Japan will provide the confirmation.” Army Air Force; 1940s; Destruction; Aircraft Industry; Bomber Harris; Speeches;
