The war is always a touchy subject. Often the debate boils down to the American saying "We won the war" and the British saying "No you bloody well did not" instead of both sides saying "Hey we kicked Hitler's ass. We rule!". I always go out of my way to extend the warmest welcome to Americans in London and find them to be polite and considerate tourists unlike the French who are rude.

I appreciate your sentiment. But, as an American, let me remind you: We won the war.

Actually it was a combination of the British, the Russians and the US.

Known commonly as the Allies.

Yes. Acknowledgement from our European cousins would be nice, but it's not necessary. That being said, polite behaviour is all well and good, but it's the bare minimum one might expect.

Well I say the Russians won the war. 80% of German military was tied up on the East front. Everybody knows that the battle for Stalingrad was the end of Nazi German.
