In the vast and unforgiving landscapes of the Second World War, few military formations have attracted as much attention, debate, and controversy as the Waffen-SS.

Operation Rolling Thunder was meant to be controlled. It was designed as a measured use of air power, a campaign that could pressure North Vietnam without triggering a wider war and without requiring the United States to commit to an all-consuming ground conflict.
