re: French poll: What nation contributed most to the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945?

When you look at it, really three battles changed the outcome of the war on the European theate. Stalingrad, the RAF beating back the Luftwaffe in the London raids, and D-Day. I'd say it was all about equal. Although, like others have said, we bank rolled the entire war. Hell, the Soviets couldn't even give every soldier a weapon in Stalingrad. The Allied powers were extremely lucky that the Soviets won that battle.
