Yes, we could have crushed the Soviet Union. We should have finished the job in 1945. WE just didn’t want to. Militarily, today’s Russia is a feeble shadow of the old Soviet Union.==
Funny))). But you forgot “I swear” and damn with facts))).
But just for mind exercise if US was so strong then why Korea was not a win? Or Vietnam for same matter?
Because we quit. We crushed the Norks and were advancing on the Yalu. We defeated the Chicoms after the initial surprise. We are a peace loving people and didn’t have the heart or will to pay the cost needed to achieve complete victory. That is also why we never destroyed the Soviet Union.
