Everyoine fought well on D-day, Omaha was just difficult because. It was probably the most heavily defended and was the largest beach out of the five attacked, but it had to be seized because the gap between Utah and Omaha Beach would have been too wide to hold if Omaha wasn't captured. Unfortunately, in the invasion of Omaha Beachnumerous flaws in planning almost certainly resulted in unnecessary loss of life. So, since it was planned by brits, your to blame for the almost failure.

Actually D-day was devised by Ishenhower and his joint staff of americans and brits. but mostly british generals were in charge. The only real British involvement at the bulge,was when the XXX Corps fought a battle and halted the German drive to the river Meuse. I give them credit for the victory, but americans also had to hold countless lines while outnumbered. More than the brits. Really, the UK did lose, in the beginning that is, yall were stuck on your island until until we entered.

Part 04: We defeated Sadam's "massive" million man army and ended the war with the nation-state of Iraq was over in about 9 days. What we are doign now is totally differnt. the global "extremist" miuslim terror organization has decided that Iraq is the place they will make their stand against us. We are NOW fighting most Saudi and Iranians fighting "on behalf" of their "muslim brothers" of Iraq and the rst of the world against the "Great Satan" that is the US...and we are winning VERY well :)!

Part 03: Afhganistan; we pushed aside the Talaiban and 75% of Al'Queda in less than 3 months and now we're mainly doing territory holding and security operations. In Iraq 2nd time; We have killed or arrested about 90% of the insurgent leaders and officers adn are winnign more and more by higher and higher ratios everyday. WE defeated sada's army in 6 days this time and toppled his government in less than 2 weeks.

Part 02: Korea, US army held the Commie tide for months outnubmerd 25 to 1, the n USMC came in and pushed them back so hard that they begged for China's help which they got and again we were outnumberd more than 15 to 1 o bad that even the desk clerks and cooks picked up their riffles and eventually defeated the enemy. In Iraq 1st time, US miltiary forces yet again outnumber 10 to 1 swept aside Sadam's army and elites in about 11 days of fighting, and pushed them back to Bahgdad.Gettin surrender

Part 01: SU Miltiary personnel are among the most professional peopel in the world. You must be to be successful in our military, or else you get drummed out. If you thik our soldiers lack the dedication here's some facts for you. 1. WWI our entire miltiary that fought were all volunteer when we had nothign to lose or gain by helping Europe. WWII 80% volunteers fought and died for the rst of the world at GREAt cost. Vietnam we won EVERY battle against the NVA and/or Kong even WAY outnumbered.

OK buddy boy.. if you actualll look at the FACTS of what the US military did compared to the USSR military. They got killed a lot more, we killed about 11 times the nazi soldier USSR did. Dieing more doesn't mean you did the majority of the fighting. We fought in Pacific, killing about 17 to one ratio against Japan; in Europe we fought back Nazism winning on a ratio of about 9 to 1; supplied USSR, china, france, french resistance, dutch resistance and Brittan all at the same time.

Also the manner in which they fought and won the war is not considered by us westerners as morally right or just. We in the US do not support using dogs as anti-tank weapons, we dont support deploying machine guns behind our lines to kill our own soldiers who fall back, we dont send our own soldiers to clear mine fields with thier feet or murder anyone who surrenders to us. We dont burn everything we come across and we dont send our soldiers into combat with no training or proper equipment.

Your right they did lose alot more people then the US but they also had alot more people to spare and many of those people they killed themselves!Im not saying they dont get credit, WE LET THEM HAVE BERLIN! they get to call it the "Great Patriotic War" There are statues and monuments all over the former USSR to their victory. You can play them in our ww2 games and see them in movies. Our history with the russians and the cold war leads us not to give praise to what they do as much as others

yea i know the japanese were absouloute cunts and deserved a good killing. but im just saying the soviet union did the brunt of the fighting against the main enemy of germany. i think an aknowledgement is needed for the russians they lost 5 times more people in stalingrad than america lost in the whole second world war. that is sacrifice |
