That was fun, thanks I’m a big WW 2 buff.
Well, I was reading some WWII books on the shelf that I hadn’t touched in ages, and was pondering it all in light of D-Day. It was on June 6th that I read that piece where it conveyed that Hitler seriously considered terminating the Russian war on the advice of his generals. Hitler might just have prevailed overall; and there would have been no D-Day. Possibly just a sustained naval war and then a negotiated peace. Because his only nearby enemy would have been Britain, and if was able to starve them they too would have sued for peace. The USA could not have fought Germany without having the UK as a staging ground.
