Scope and content

McLachlan has seen a document which puts the death toll caused by British raids over Dresden in February 1945 at 202,040. That is double the generally accepted figure used most recently by David Irving in his book about the Dresden raids. Asks whether SZ would like to meet McLachlan and Irving to discuss it.
