>Reduced to approximately thirty able men, most members of the Sturmbataillon had been captured or escaped Berlin on their own, or in small groups. Most of those who made it to France were apprehended and sent to Allied prisons and camps. Fenet was sentenced to 20 years of forced labour, but was released from prison in 1959. Others were shot upon capture by the French authorities. General Philip Leclerc, the French divisional commander who had served under the Americans, was presented with a group of 11-12 captured Charlemagne Division men. The Free French General immediately asked them why they wore a German uniform, to which one of them replied by asking the General why he wore an American one (French Army uniform stocks had been plundered en masse by the Germans during the occupation). The group of French Waffen-SS men were later shot.

barely. The US was able to put together a bigger Pacific fleet in 3 years than the japs in 15 years of preparation. They had nearly no metal, oil, and rubber to fuel their industry because all of it came from recently conquered Dutch colonies.

There was always an expectation for a front to be opened in France, it was just a matter of where and when. The Soviets wanted that front most of all, since t would force the Germans to divert forces off the Eastern Front. The Free French, of course, wanted to see France liberated, and would also stand to benefit the American & British forces working their way up Italy and having a tougher go of it than expected.

Heres one:
"One foreigner who did obtain a private audience with Mannerheim during the January lull was the well-connected Sir Walter Citrine...With unusual candow, at one point in their conversation, Mannerheim told Citrine that he himself had been incredulous about early Russian casualty reports. Battles simply were not that one-sided, in his experience. When one division commander reported that his men had killed 1,000 Russian infantry in a single night, at Taipale, Mannerheim let it be known that he did not believe the figure. Two days later, a terse message came back from the division commander, stating that more than 1,000 Moisin rifles had been collected from the dead and inventoried, if the Marshal would care to come count them for himself. Mannerheim allowed himself a wintry smile as he told the story, adding thathe seldom questioned the casualty reports thereater. "I did not think that my men we so good, or that the Russians could be so bad.""

It includes Mensheviks even though they constantly fought and hated the Bolsheviks, and includes such stunning evidence as Stalin working at a refinery owned by the Roschilds for pennies an hour as proof that the Jews were funding communism

Okay? The Russians had hordes of men that outnumbered Germans easily. Of course they needed the brute of their forces there to stop it. By no means does this mean the Soviets were a good contribution... ten million fucking men died on their side because the higher echelon of Soviet leaders wanted to spread communism. They could have simply kept the border secure and let the West clean up Germany or whatever but instead they sacrificed more lives than any other country for basically nothing.

you're a retard who doesn't know anything. Stalin was opposed to internationalism in 1939, that was a Trotskyite view and you'd be shot for it. Soviet policy was pretty inward-looking rather than the permanent worldwide revolution shit of the 1920's.
The reason the Soviets didn't "keep the border secure" was because Stalin was busy purging the army leadership and they were woefully unprepared for Barbarossa. By the end of 1941 an offensive war was necessary just to get back to their 1939 borders and at that Stalin wanted a buffer of Soviet-friendly states in eastern Europe so the same thing didn't happen
and honestly if it weren't for D-Day they probably would have kept going and made all of central and western Europe red as well

I guess Americans and Bongs would have had to plan accordingly, they were perfectly happy letting Nazis and Gommies kill each other for as long as possible.

Also, Germany putting more troops in the western front would have meant getting fucked even harder in the eastern.

This is correct. Wehrboos don't want to admit it but the Soviet Union could have won the war alone, without any allies. Their industrial capacity and manpower were so much greater than Germany's, their terrain and weather conditions made them unconquerable, and the war was incredibly popular with the population. So when you combine the ability of the Soviet economy to completely blow Germany out with their inexhaustible manpower, inherently high morale (fighting for national survival, not ideological conquest) and the winter, Soviet victory was actually inevitable. Even without the allies.
>>
>>71080199
Yes it was. Africa and Italy campaigns. A lot of combat veterans. Also better equipped: tanks that didn't break down, an Air Force that could actually fly, armaments that weren't garbage built by forced labor and often rigged not to work...
>>
>>71080308
>what if the war happened some completely different way?

The West and Germany were at war before Germany and the USSR was at war. If the west didn't start a fight with Germany over Poland, Hitler would've never attempted a preemptive strike on the USSR. Or such a preemptive strike would've been incredibly stronger.

>Wehrboos don't want to admit it but the Soviet Union could have won the war alone, without any allies.
Possible, but rather not.

>Their industrial capacity and manpower were so much greater than Germany's
True

>their terrain and weather conditions made them unconquerable
Bad conditions, yes. Broader chains for german tanks and russia would have been defeated with ease.

>and the war was incredibly popular with the population.
No comment.

>inherently high morale
They were treated worse than animals by the bolshevists and often thus behaved like it.

This is incorrect. War between the Reich and the USSR was inevitable. Germany invaded because their only chance was to take out the communists before they reached a higher level of military preparedness and fully recovered from the purges, and before they fully tapped into their industrial capacity.

Haven't you ever heard of lebensraum? War was absolutely inevitable. And no, it wouldn't have been stronger because blitzkreig doesn't work across areas the size of Russia.
>>
>>71080365
Oh fuck off. Normandy invasion was a fucking massacre. If it wasn't for the air division running amok behind enemy lines those 'hardened veterans' would have died all the same.

Germany had expanded far too much to be able to control it against so many allies coming in from so many different angles. If it wasn't for Hitler's cockiness, the Eastern campaign wouldn't have started until the West was well and truly secured.

Both sides behaved like animals by today's standards. Raping and murdering innocent people has been part of military conquest for thosisnds of years.

Broader chains for German tanks? Do you mean... Supply chains? Changing the treads? That's ridiculous. As fighting vehicles German tanks were very good. The problem wasn't their combat effectiveness, but limited range and propensity to break down, where they'd sit forever because they couldn't be prepared.

The other problem was they actually had very few tanks compared to the Soviets.

Conquering your neighbors isn't national survival, it's ideological conquest, in this case for lebensraum. Defending against such a conquest is national survival. The propagandists in Moscow realized that people were much more motivated by the idea of defending Mother Russia and didn't give two shits about communism; most propaganda centered around that and it was very effective, which kept morale high. The absolute depravity of the Germans toward conquered peoples also made surrender a non-option.
>>
>>71080752
Russia didn't have any of the territory taken from Germany after their defeat in World War One. Lebensraum was part of Nazi ideology, laid out in Mein Kampf: purge Slavic lands and resettle them with Germans. This is not up for debate. Invade Poland, invade France, get back what you lost. I get that.

Invade Russia? Unrelated.
>>
>>71080758
Yes, but it isn't as though without lend-lease they would have lost. They would have won anyway.
>>
>>71080777
>As fighting vehicles German tanks were very good.
Yes, but they weren't built for conquest in russia. Wehrmacht didn't even have proper winter clothing.
Broader tank chains, more weather hardened vehicles and the muddy conditions wouldn't have been as much a problem as they has been.

As for the rest just read the thread.
As fighting vehicles German tanks were very good.

The Eastern Front decided the war you dipshits. German power was broken by the Soviet counter-attack outside Moscow, and the nail in the coffin was Stalingrad the following year. The Soviets quite literally won WWII, and if they had collapsed Europe would've come under complete control of the Axis

This does not solve the issue of German over-engineering. These tanks broke down all the time, and they couldn't be repaired by the crews. What might be minor repairable damage (up and running in a day) for a Sherman or T34 was a total loss for the Germans.

You see examples of German over-engineering hampering the war effort everywhere. The V1 and V2 rockets were expensive and didn't do any significant damage due to their small payloads and shitty targeting system. The ME262 was fast but constantly broke down and was too expensive and complicated to build in significant numbers.

How many variants of complicated tanks did Germany field? It's impossible to mass-produce under those conditions. Also slave labor meant their munitions were mostly garbage and rigged to blow up in Franz's hands.

Blood and soil. Nothing wrong with it.

>laid out in Mein Kampf: purge Slavic lands and resettle them with Germans.
Hitler was a moron to write it so that it could be understood that way, as he clearly didn't have that ambition. He even admitted later that he wrote it badly in that regard, if I'm not mistaken.

>Invade Russia? Unrelated.

Hitler and Stalin felt incredibly threatened by one another. Stalin felt invasion was inevitable and was preparing to attack first. Hitler felt Stalin would inevitably attack, and attacked first. Both were paranoid, murderous megalomaniacs. I've read biographies of both and I cannot imagine a scenario where these two men could have avoided war.

Both were veterans of serious military conflicts who rose to the top of their respective organizations based on maneuver, inspiring loyalty/fealty, fear, and paranoia. Both grew up in abusive environments and abandoned their initial career trajectories. (Hitler was going to be an artist, Stalin was going to join the clergy.)

Both killed millions of innocents, including their own family members, and conducted brutal purges of perceived threats within their parties.

War was inevitable, and therefore Soviet victory was inevitable.

Italians were war-weary and didn't want to fight any longer, after suffering massive reverses in N. Africa like El Alamein. News pouring in from the East of the massive German retreat outside Moscow did nothing to lift their spirits, so when the Allies landed in Sicily, the Italians mostly gave up without a fight and Mussolini was imprisoned in a bloodless coup. Only reason the Germans were able to hold on to Nortern Italy was because of a monumental fuck-up by the Allies in not driving North. They had the troops and the advantage of initiative, as well as both air and sea superiority, but they sat on their hands for like 6 weeks before making any kind of advance, allowing the Germans to entrench themselves and even seize Rome without a fight. Diaries of the top German generals confirm that they thought the war was over as soon as the Allies landed in Italy, because the generals believed the Allies would push north and strike the undefended German underside. Allies didn't do this because they wanted the Soviets to continuw bleeding.

Right, just like

>we just want to remilitarize the Rhineland, it's our own backyard
>we just want to annex Austria, then there will be peace
>we just want to annex the Sudetenland, then there will be peace
>we just want to annex the rest of Czechoslovakia, then there will be peace

If they had given him Danzig, he next would have demanded Silesia, Posen, and more Polish territory.

Face it, Hitler was made of the same stuff as Alexander, Caesar and Napoleon. He was a great leader, but there was no way he would have been content with normalcy. He needed action, conflict, and turmoil like the great conquerors who preceded him.

Why should the Soviets have lost? The Soviets wouldn't have wanted to conquer Germany unless it was to prevent their own destruction.

Alexander, Caesar, and Napoleon were noblemen/royalty. Hitler was the son of a bureaucrat. For a good portion of his life he was homeless. He was a brave soldier but you cannot compare him to the greatest generals and rulers of all time. These types of 20th century revolutionary ideologues are not comparable to men like Napoleon and Alexander.

Hitler was not a brilliant general or strategist. He was a charismatic political leader who had been a brave soldier. But not an officer, commander, or prince. You are high as fuck.

>>71081991
Napoleon came from nothing, and while Caesar had a good family name, he was dirt poor when he began his rise. Hitler was absolutely a good strategist, as strategy extends to the economic, political and social theatres as well, which Hitler rejuvinated and dominated. If you want to say he's a bad tactician, well I would partially agree with you; although the invasion of the Scandinavian countries, of Poland and of France were tactical masterpieces, and were almost completely planned by Hitler. He's also credited with saving the German army from complete disintegration after the battle of Moscow.

>>we just want to remilitarize the Rhineland, it's our own backyard
It's german.

>>we just want to annex Austria, then there will be peace
It's also called as war of roses, because austrians are germans and held a referendum to become part of Germany. There were soldiers of Germany in Austria met with flowers and likewise austrian soldiers in Germany as a sign of brotherhood and peacefulness.

>we just want to annex the Sudetenland, then there will be peace
>we just want to annex the rest of Czechoslovakia, then there will be peace
Same thing. Czechoslovakia was a construct formed after WW1. Before that it belonged to the hungary-german realm of Austria-Hungary. It didn't make sense at all, as czechs oppressed germans and slovaks. Both groups wanted to become free. Integrating 6 million czechs as a minority into the german nation of ~70 million people makes much more sense than 3 million germans and well over 2million slovaks as a oppressed minority of a czech country. Slovakia became independent and czechs lived in a german protectorate and thus in a german realm again as they did for hundreds of years and were basically culturally fully assimilated.

France behaved way more aggressive towards Germany in history than the other way around.
They lost a piece of german! populated clay when they provoked the franco-prussian war from 1870-1871, which they lost.

Napoleon did not come from nothing. Napoleon was born a nobleman. Not rich, but from a noble family.

Hitler wasn't a good strategist; some of his policies were successful, but he ultimately led Germany into barbarism, ruin, and partition.

In the 1920s American's believed it was Britain's responsibility to maintain the precarious stability of the reigning world order.

It turned out, without America's willingness to involve itself in maintaining that order and cooperating with the other liberal democracies, they were unable to keep the balance and the worst conflict in all of human history broke out. It is beholden on America to uphold the current world order. America is the one who created it. This isn't a partisan issue, republicans & democrats since FDR have realized the importance of a willingness to intervene globally to deter aggression in the quest of maintaining security & stability for the west.

It is a responsibility that cannot be outsourced.
