• Sir_Arthur_Harris,_1st_Baronet abstract "Marshal of the Royal Air Force Sir Arthur Travers Harris, 1st Baronet, GCB, OBE, AFC (13 April 1892 – 5 April 1984), commonly known as "Bomber" Harris by the press, and often within the RAF as "Butcher" Harris, was Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief (AOC-in-C) of RAF Bomber Command (from early 1943 holding the rank of Air Chief Marshal) during the latter half of World War II. In 1942 the Cabinet agreed to the "area bombing" of German cities. Harris was tasked with implementing Churchill's policy and supported the development of tactics and technology to perform the task more effectively. Harris assisted British Chief of the Air Staff Marshal of the Royal Air Force Charles Portal in carrying out the United Kingdom's most devastating attacks against the German infrastructure and population, including the Bombing of Dresden.Harris emigrated to Southern Rhodesia in 1910 at the age of 17 and returned to England in 1915 to fight in World War I's European theatre. He joined the Royal Flying Corps, with which he remained until the formation of the Royal Air Force in 1918, and thereafter served with the RAF in India, Mesopotamia, Persia, Egypt, Palestine and other places during the 1920s and 1930s. He took command of No. 5 Group RAF in England at the outbreak of World War II in 1939 and was appointed head of Bomber Command in February 1942. He retained that position for the rest of the war.Harris' continued preference for area bombing over precision targeting in the last year of the war remains controversial, partly because by this time many senior Allied air commanders thought it less effective and partly for the large number of civilian casualties and destruction this strategy caused in Continental Europe. While the Butt Report found that in 1940 and 1941, only one in three attacking aircraft got within five miles (eight km) of their target, many technical and training improvements such as H2S radar and the Pathfinder force were implemented later on in the war.".
