The truth of World War II …the US dropped millions of leaflets to warn civilians to leave the areas they were going to bomb, many chose to stay. (In many peoples mind it’s an honor to die for their country.)
They were warned of inpending cities that were going to be bombed. They did not want to kill civilians.
