Has anybody else heard the US war effort “bad mouthed’ by Brits because we entered the war “late”? Aside from significant US combat contributions in Europe which are reluctantly acknowledged, the pivotal role US supplies and materiel played in winning the war against both Germany and Japan is often given short shrift by such critics. As I always say when hear such sentiments, nobody won the war by itself, the Allies won the war. As for the former USSR, it takes full credit for the defeat of Nazi Germany.

The Russians started the damn war with the Germans. And they lost so many because of Stalin purging his best Generals before the war, and not being prepared when Hitler invaded.

Yes. You see it on discussion boards all the time. Like we were supposed to declare war in 39, blah, ba-de, blah, blah...

These are Brits all pissed off because we don't make more war movies about ..... Brits. Sorry. Go suck on rocks, Lyemes.

As far as the Russians are concerned, there is a very good reason they were able to sweep and overrun German troops with reinforcements almost instantaneously and moved massive amounts of artillery very quickly.

It's called the US Studebaker 6X6 and they had a butt load through lend-lease shipments. The Germans were primarily still horse drawn.
