I've always wondered why Hitler would do something as stupid as declaring war on the U.S.
Part of the reason why is because the US Navy was already waging a shooting war against Nazi German seapower assets for a while before Hitler declared war.
The USA was a declared neutral, but, was working very hard to help Great Britain. This help included US Navy involvement in shipping convoy protection, and anti-German submarine operations.
Of course, it was still a stupid move to declare war on the USA.
