It was a big assed war. Today we couldn’t fight and win another war like it.

A lot of neat figures came our of WW II. For instance, just one of our fleets in the Pacific was bigger than the whole Royal Navy.

We had 99 combat divisions. We were originally scheduled to have 200 but our air power and superior artillery allowed us to have fewer.

There were 38 Army corps. (A corps is 2 or more divisions)Some corps had as many divisions as the whole US Army of today. (10).

200 aircraft carriers of all sizes.

Etc, etc, etc.
