I thought it was fascinating to see a visual of the utter devastation that occurred in Dresden and Hiroshima as a result of bombing. While other wars often target military infrastructure primarily, WWII can be characterised by its massive impacts on civilians and civilian infrastructure: the demolished buildings that are shown in the photos aren't military fortresses or anything, but rather residential buildings where families lived. Looking back on WWII retrospectively, photos of the destruction of civilian areas is more viscerally unsettling than numbers (i.e. death tolls) because it really contextualises what the war meant for the lives of ordinary citizens like ourselves.
