Re: Churchill wanted to use captured Nazi troops to drive the Soviet Union out of Eastern Europe
Churchill from the very beginning was worried about the division of Europe post WW2. Everything which occurred after the war Churchill had envisioned. It was also Churchill who wanted to launch an allied invasion from the East along with the Russian troops... Both Stalin and Roosevelt knew why he wanted this and Roosevelt shut him down.
I can only imagine what went through Churchill's head a decade after the war.
An interesting article PzJgr!
