The tactic used during this attack is referred to as fire bombing. Fire bombing is when thousands of tons of explosive incendiary bombs are dropped surrounding a certain area, creating a massive fireball that consumes a vast majority of the oxygen, as well as causing massive destruction.]]> 2019-03-13 15:55:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kameronc21002/wds6dbsu9e2c/wish/340945903 deannab21314 https://padlet.com/kameronc21002/wds6dbsu9e2c/wish/340948464 - The aerial bombing left a devastating effect on many civilian corpses. Their skin melted while the adults bodies shriveled up and any child ranging from 3 and under vaporized completely. 
-  The fiery square surrounding the city  completely diminished the oxygen around the people; consequently, the fire was moving at a pace of 150 mph and the wind was burning at 800 degrees Celsius.  
- The bombing was kept a secret by the US after the war, because the bombing was not necessary. The only reason it occurred was because of a promise that President Franklin Roosevelt made to Joseph Stalin to keep bombing Germany in preparation for the USSR invasion.]]> 2019-03-13 15:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/kameronc21002/wds6dbsu9e2c/wish/340948464 https://padlet.com/kameronc21002/wds6dbsu9e2c/wish/340951331 Dresden was considered to be one of the most beautiful cities due to its pristine acrchitecture and cultural landmarks.
