Thanks for making my point.

That battle was predominately a British-Canadian battle. In fact the US entry almost lost us the battle, as Adm King’s stupidity saw US ships and men lost in huge numbers until the USN adopted UK-Can tactics.

If you want to debate the Allied war in detail and look at the American, British and Canadian contributions, I would be happy to do so. You might be shocked at just how much the Allied victory relied on Britain and Canada though, as opposed to the notion that America was the primary contributor.

I in no way denigrate the tremendous contributions or enormous sacrifices of our allies. But even Churchill well understood that American manufacturing capabilities and American military participation were THE decisive factors. From the moment we entered the war against Germany, he knew well that ultimate total victory was assured. You’re the first person I’ve ever encountered who takes issue with these obvious facts.
