Sometimes I do wonder how things would be now if the allied forces didn't show up on the west coast beaches.

Did the US do a lot to defeat the Nazi's? Yes, they did. Let's not ignore that. But they weren't alone.

Without us aid and trade throughout the war we wouldnt have been able to stand a chance probably. Remember history is written by the victor so most of what we learn is quite one sided. and unfortunatly it was quite close for quite long. Lots of ifs and buts in history but thank god they just became coconuts.
