摘要
On March 6, 1944, the US Eighth Air Force conducted the first allied daylight raid in force over the German capital. The raid represented a change in strategy and a turning point in the war. But it came at great cost. The History Guy recalls the raid that came to be called "Black Monday" for the Mighty Eighth.
