Bomber Command's role in World War II was to strike back at Germany at the end of the blitz. Throughout the war Americans, British and other commonwealth pilots flew missions over Germany and bombed vital military and industrial targets. The Americans flew daylight raids and the British flew at night. By the time the Allies invaded France in June of 1944 Germany was crippled industrially and was unable to keep up to the needs of her war effort.
