Angus is correct as usual.
Look up the "Rape of Nanking"
Don't see anyone talking about that anymore either.
We as history, and aviation buffs try to recreate the better things that came out of that war.
The selflessness, the courage, the willingness to give your all for your country.
We honor those concepts and the memories of those who died by flying the planes.
We do not honor the death march of Baatan, or the firebombing of Dresden.
Nor hundreds of similar acts by all country's involved.
We do not mention them, we leave them buried in the ashes of millions of peoples lives.
And we try very hard not to disturb their slumbers.
Show some respect for the dead, on all sides.
Let them rest in peace.
