My first flight instructor had been an Me-110 pilot during the war; he shot down 4 Lancasters and three other aircraft.

The British were the good guys.
The United States were the good guy.
Germany & Japan were evil incarnate.

At least 50 million people killed by them in the wars they started that brought down a iron curtain. China had communist take over and the communists killed 60 million of the Chinese people. Billions lived miserable lives in eastern europe and asia.
Not sorry at all what happened to those that started WW2.
