I've been on a WW2 binge lately. I'm just now realizing how that war is maybe the most significant event in human history. I can't think of another that changed the world as much as it did.
I've always wondered how differently things would have been had two scenarios changed at the end of the war:
1. Truman doesn't approve of the bombs. The loss of life that would have occured in an invasion of mainland Japan would have been a staggering number never before seen in warfare.
2. What if Truman had agreed to Churchill's plan to rearm 100k German POWs and immediately go to war with Russia?

I've never heard of this and I'm pretty knowledgeable about WWII.
