    And brad, that ME-109 piccy is his signature, has nothing to do with the post



    Frankly, the nation-bashing is ridiculous. The RAF certainly could have held it's own against the Luftwaffe, but would have been very hard-pressed without the American lend-lease planes. As for being 'a concerned by-stander', we had a policy of keeping ourselves out of foreign affairs, which I don't agree with, but can understand. America, being so seperated from the rest of the world, had nothing to fear for the longest time from the Third Reich. When Japan finally launched an assault at us, we were thrown into war which we couldn't have won alone (RAF and VVS to the rescue). But yet, could Britain have invaded Fortress Europe alone? Or for that matter, beaten off Germany in the BoB and, if not, staved off Operation Sealion? The point here is that without one, the other certainly would have perished in war with Germany, but since there was support even before America entered the war, the Allies won the war hands down. So you Brits, leave America alone, because without us, you would have perished. And you American's, leave Britain alone, because without 'em, we would have had a very, VERY rough time winning our own battles. Near impossible, perhaps


    There, now I've said my piece. Now, feel free to punch holes in it, as I know some will

    Yeah, I'm (part) German as well, and I would fly for GERMANY in a heart-beat. Fly for the Third Reich? Not a chance. The planes would have been interesting, but the purpose would drive me away...

    Kiwimac, thank for the thoughts. We are all ready to stand up for our own side, but as a Yank I want to learn more. The US attitude was a little better in 1942, but by 1945 we were really just hitting our stride as far as production and war effort go.

    I think to fly with Japan would have been nice! Over the pacific though it would have been dicey and only early in the war. Or how about to be able to fly with Doolittle's Raiders

    I'd fly for the R.A.F so I could fly the Mossie, and rip up the ground in Tempests and Typhoons..

    'Hatred' is a strong word mate - i don't 'hate' Americans...i just get tired sometimes by alot of Americans putting the Brits down..it happens alot and i get fed up - The only point i was arguing was the American involvement in the B of B - i wouldn't say the Americans didn't have an important part in the war...just not as far as military assistance during the B of B - i'm proud of my country and most of my posts are passionate...if people think i'm over-the-top then thats fine...i won't say sorry cos thats just my style...i think you need to lighten up a bit mate and stop taking your country so very seriously....there are plenty of Americans on this site that are keen to learn and are greatly respected by me, but you yanks can't expect to go around making statements like the kind i responded to and get away with it...not on this site
