The western allies could have never fired another shot after December of 1944 and the Germans still would have lost. All that would have happened is that the Russians would have taken more of Germany before linking up with the Americans and British.
While we mythologize the Western Front, at the end of the day it was almost a sideshow as far as the war went. Three quarters of the German Army was fighting on the Eastern Front, and that's where the war was decided.
Thanks for that. I’ll be reading up on it.
