Title

Creation of a fire break

Description

This image is a part of the United States Strategic Bombing Survey in Japan. This study sought to evaluate the effects and importance of air power. This image shows houses that were demolished to create a fire break, making it more difficult for incendiary bombs to ignite entire cities. The caption reads: "Japanese photograph showing a firebreak being constructed. These houses were wrecked by demolition."
