re: Is what the US did in WWII the most impressive thing a country’s ever done?

there was no outcome where the united states ends up on the losing side of that war. russia surrending, russia overcoming, it really did not matter. it was only a matter of how long it would have taken

If Hitler does Dunkirk right and doesn’t let the Yugoslav coup d'état affect his plans (seriously, that was retarded to delay his invasion of Russia for something that would take 5 seconds to deal with later), I think they win WWII. There are certainly alternate realities where Europe is completely Nazified and others where it is completely Communist.
