Master 1490 - Tape 2 Aerial shot of massive bomb damage to urban area in unidentified European country during World War Two (WWII, WW II, World War II): buildings such as churches & apartment buildings devastated to skeletal structures. Aerial shots of bombed-out stone arch bridges (almost like aqueducts) & railroad tracks. Brief swooping aerial shots of rural countryside. Aerial shot of bomb damage to railroad track, derailed train cars. More aerial shots of bomb damage to stone arch bridge with RRX across top. In all likelihood, this strategic bombing was caused by Allied bombers against German transportation lines and strongholds.
