Title: Watchmen TV series

I thought it was gripping TV. And to learn that Tulsa was the First US city to have been bombed from the air totally blew my mind.

I thought it was a great show as well.

Yes, but the first bombing by a foreign power was in 1929 at Naco, Arizona. An Irish mercenary hired by Mexican rebels was trying to bomb Mexican Govt. forces on the Mexican side of the border, but accidentally bombed the US side of the town.

The Tulsa bombing by air occured on July 1, 1921. Wasn't a foreign power, which in some ways makes it worse I think.
