Air Chief Marshal Sir Arthur Harris was famous for being the Commander of RAF Bomber Command during WW2. His experience in WW1 had shaped a conviction that area bombing, including bombing cities was essential to destroy the enemy war production and civilians morale, to force them to pressure their leaders to end war.
