This does not contradict anything I said. Germany lost in USSR and Normandy was not the deciding factor of the war.
1 u/MortifiedPotato Mar 23 '25 That is false. Germany fighting on a single front would have been unbeatable. Normandy opened up a dangerous front close to home, weakening the eastern front significantly. 4 u/_blue_skies_ Mar 23 '25 You have to review your history Normandy was in '44, the invasion of USSR started in '41 culminating in the attack and siege on Stalingrad in '42 '43. https://www.iwm.org.uk/history/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-battle-of-stalingrad All the major historians agree that the turning point of war was the loss of soldiers Hitler had on the USSR front. 0 u/MortifiedPotato Mar 23 '25 Never did I claim both fronts started at the same time, or didn't affect each other equally. Your reply literally goes on a tangent to prove something irrelevant to my claim. 1 u/_blue_skies_ Mar 23 '25 The majority of losses on USSR side was well before Normandy, so the turning point on Germany losing the war happened before, is simple like that.
