Not surprising as these battles never got much attention in the West despite the fact that almost 45000 Imperial Japanese Army soliders were killed during the Kwantung Army’s anhilation by the great Zhukov’s forces.

Yeah, the British & US Forces operating in NW Europe were puny when compared to the German & Soviet force ratios in Eastern Europe. Taking your armed forces across the Atlantic & keeping them supplied tends to limit your force structure.

You need to explain. I was discssing the general apathy toward the Second Russo-Japanese War; do you have anything to say about why it has been ignored by HISTORIANS?
