Also how come uk and usa got some much credit in the more for not doing too much
>>1249377
Barely credited by who?
>>1249377
Because they got real twitchy after the war ended.
Because of anti-soviet propaganda of the cold war.
>>1249377
Because Saving Private Ryan is about the D-day landings
No one in academia ctually thinks Russia was barely involved.
>>1249379
just in general,never really said any thing in schools much treated like smaller country's like France etc
>>1249392
Probably because schools are only interested in teaching general histories related to ones country.
Because Russia's strategy wasn't heroic or even good.
It was basically someone who punched in the Konami code and bragged about beating the game. Want to impress someone? Use strategy and actually fight better.
The US kicked ass. Russians just ran a cheat code essentially. Didn't Germany kill like 50 men to everyone Russia killed? I hardly call that something to brag about.

4/10 got me to reply.

but the US did not come into the war later on and had normal trade off of 1 German for 1 american

Are you twelve?

>had normal trade off of 1 German for 1 american
Not the guy you're responding to, but that's simply not true. America's worst sub-theater in the ETO was Italy, and there they were getting 5 Germans for every 3 guys they were losing. Elsewhere, it was far more lopsided in their favor.

> The US kicked ass
> doesn't even fought on its own land
That was basically playing on very easy mode.
>>1249455
It actually is a relevant indicator of generalship.
Especially if it means you lose an entire generation of men, like the USSR did.
>>1249520
Literally the opposite of true.
Source: do you realize what a bitch the battle of the Atlantic was?
Do you realize what a bitch it was to get a foothold in Europe?
To build a working logistics chain?
If the US could just roll tanks out of the factories into the theater, like the Russians could, the war simply wouldn't have happened, because it would be suicidal.

>Notice me America!
We gave you guys a Jude Law movie, now fuck off.

muh ideology
>>1249377
by who?
ever since the end of the cold war, europe and any anti american cuck has been a huge revisionist. they now claim it was all the soviets and the americans did nothing and didn't even fight till the end.
>mfw someone says Zhukov wasn't the best general of WW2 near me
the USA fought on every continent across battlefields thousands of miles wide, cordinating the defense of itself, the support of its allies, and millions of men on the opposite side of the planet
the soviets went in one direction on their own continent
