Bombers Over Hamburg

• Collier's Magazine, 1943 •

On the right is a 1943 article that was cabled from Stockholm, Sweden, relaying assorted firsthand narratives of the Allied bombing campaign over the German city of Hamburg in 1943:

"Eyewitness accounts of men and women who escaped the holocaust of Hamburg picture the utter horror of a great city's destruction, it's people terrified beyond endurance and too dazed to panic. It's a clear preview of what is happening to German morale."

The witnesses were all escaped Scandinavian laborers who had been working in that city.
