Yes! So not only was the U.S. strategic militarily, but we had business sense to boot! (in terms of producing and selling things to our allies before joining the war in person.)
Interesting about Russia’s status in ‘43-’44. Thank you for clarifying.
I wish we as Americans took greater care to preserve these narratives and own these victories. Not to lord over others, but to remember those we’ve lost and to stop self-sabotaging ourselves with P.C. revisionism.

Me too. Problem is the left is still in love with Communism and is completely unwilling to admit what a disaster it was. Hence why they play up the Soviet Union during WW2. Stalinist propaganda is still repeated word for work by western historians despite what we learned from the Russian archives after the fall of the Soviet Union. Stalinist Russia lied about everything during the war in order to portray themselves in a positive light.
