You make valid points but most of the Axis powers were fighting the Soviets. Did the U.S. ever face the Romanians in battle? Finnish?
Only with Americans. Not the rest of the world. ;)
You just do not turn on a ally who played the largest role in defeating the Axis powers. Patton was one man whom others did not share his opinion...
Patton gets alot of publicity but the fact is he was a very unstable and delusional man.
Guys I will analyze the book which is more or less a photo book and a good one. Alot of these battles did not have names because they were so...
That was still a large Japanese Army. The Civil War does not count. There was no media back then.
U.S. tank Battles in Korea.
I strongly recommend it for the footage alone. Some of the best I have seen in any WW2 dvd set.

The HG div did not have much trouble with them in Italy. They played a role just like every other unit in the ETO. The 30th Infantry div was better.
Do you guys even think there are 100 Americans under 30 who care about WW2? They only care about texting on their cell phones.
How many people do you think are familiar with the Soviet Manchuria offensive? One of the greatest strategic operations in history.
The Russians have not forgotten. They have many memorials and victory parades to remind them.
In general the U.S. has always exaggerated its role in Europe. The Soviet effort downplayed. Most Americans do not know squat about the war these...
This is a good thing.
Myths? That the Germans ever had a chance to defeat the Soviets. Despite their skill they lacked every resource that a victory would have...
