And every place we went,
it was the same.

1:09:06
Factories, refineries, railroads.
1:09:08
All beginning to show the effects
of the bombing.

1:09:11
Did you drive through Regensburg?
1:09:13
What was left of it.
1:09:15
I hear the raid was very successful.
1:09:19
The chemical plants
were completely destroyed.

1:09:22
