A visceral account of the white-knuckled bombing mission carried out on Hitler's hometown.In April 1945, Linz was one of Nazi Germany's most vital assets: a crucial transportation hub and communications centre, its railyards brimming with war materiel destined for the front lines. Linz was also the town Hitler claimed as home.
