Russia had 5 times the number of men under arms vs the Allies in Europe. Patton wouldn’t have walked over the Russians. Quite the opposite.

I have heard that Churchill thought that way too. It would have been interesting to see how the Russians would have done without the weapons we gave them. They did, after all, have weapons factories of their own too.
