Maybe The One should drag Kurt Vonnegut along with him.

Vonnegut, the author of "Firehouse Five" was a POW in Dresden on the night of the RAF's raid. He was lucky to escape with his life.

“Slaughterhouse Five”

Earlier this week I finished a book of collected wartime letters that included one by him, in which he described the bombing and what he saw after. Surreal stuff.
