It is worth pointing out that the article never claims that the database contains information on every bomb the US has ever dropped. The article clearly states that more information is needed, eg:
"For the Korean War Robertson found the detailed mission records for the
first 10 months of the three-year conflict but he is still trying to
get his hands on the rest."
- coldarchon 14y agoAs a German from the hard industry Ruhr Area which was heavily bombed during World War 2 I can assure you their database is useless. There are 1 or 2 hidden bombs found in the ground EVERY month which apparently come out of nowhere because they are neither on the pictures of air reconnaissance after the bombings nor in their protocols for being sent at all. Yesterday they found a 1.000 pound bomb in Wilhelmsburg and 2.000 people had to leave their homes temporarily for its deactivation. A dredge had found it.
