He is best remembered for the strategic yet controversial bombings of mainland Japan. His firebombing of Tokyo was considered crucial to the Allied victory in the Pacific Theater but resulted in a massive loss of civilian life. Later in life, LeMay was asked by Alabama Governor George Wallace to join his presidential ticket in 1968.
