"Adolf Hitler declared war on the United States on 11 December 1941. President Roosevelt addressed the Congress on 7 January 1942. We will hit and hit hard. I can't tell you if we will fight the enemy in Norway or the Netherlands or in France or in Sardinia or in Sicily or in the Balkans or in Poland or even in many places simultaneously. However, I can tell ;you on thing, it doesn't matter where or when the fight begins, we and the British and the Russians will hit him from the air, hard and without pause. Day after day we will drop tons of explosive bombs on his military supply factories, war facilities, and his harbors and their associated buildings. The American Air Force has seized these goals!"
