On the cover:
World War II Army Air Force (AAF) poster, 1944. The cheerleading spirit of the poster’s text—“The greatest team in the world” and “BOMBS AWAY!”—contrasts sharply with the dead serious look on the bombardier’s face. Unwittingly, the image and text together convey the moral ambiguity of strategic bombing in the minds of Americans. Poster art by Cecil Calvert Beall.
