The Germans were real careful not to hit civilians in the USSR, were they?
Discussion
Their aerial capabilities were focused on the battle lines, not bombing civilians. Not saying this was necessarily a moral choice, it may have just been strategic but it’s remarkable in hindsight, given that aerial supremacy won the war, that Hitler and Stalin didn’t endeavor to achieve it the way the Brits and Americans did. Failure of imagination? Maybe. Moral rectitude? Probably not. But it’s what happened.
