@TheIhealme I would never say merciful about killing....but I know things would have been worse if the Japanese hadn't surrendered. Google Unit 731 and Shiro Ishii. The militants who controlled Japan would've done terrible things to win. There isn't much honor in losing, but there's no honor in doing that. Better the war is over and we all move on.

I live in East Anglia, a p[art of England in which there were several large American USAF bases during World War Two, and also many British RAF bases as well of course, with both the British and the American airmen flying out from England on bombing missions over Nazi Germany. This song now reminds me of the Memorial plaques I see in my home area dedicated to all those American airmen serving here in my country, the UK, during those terrible times of danger which was WW2. God bless them all.

@groundcontrol436385 Estimates for american lives lost exceeded 1 million, that doesn't count the near genocide the US would have had to commit to pacify the Japaneese people who were being trained to fight with everything they had (including bamboo spears). Men, women and children were all ready to lay down their lives to protect Japan from an invasion. The most merciful thing the US did was drop the atomic bombs.

What was the poster shown at 2:19? I can't find it anywhere and i kind of like that picture. Shows the strength of the Lancaster and the determination of the crew.

Well said. I couldn't agree more.

@richintalent A very brave man . If you get the chance I can recommend a visit to Aldeburgh Uk . There is a disused 8th airfield nearby as a museum and a memorial to those men /boys so many never came back.

Seriously. Posters want to criticize the allied forces because they were "too tough" on those who started the war? Get effing real. Are you saying we should have fought the war "nicely"? Yea, that's not how you win. Stop second guessing those who had to fight and make tough decisions. War is never nice.
Japan would have never surrendered without a land invasion by allied forces which would have cost too many lives & resources.
