The Western Front was child’s play


The Germans said that the Western front was child's play compared to their eastern front with Russia. I think I'd pic Europe against the Germans over the Pacific. I'd pic the Pacific over fighting with the Russians against Germany.

Important to remember that the US Army tooth to tail ratio was about 40-60, so you had a more than even chance of not seeing any combat at all. Even better if you had any kind of technical specialty. As someone noted upthread, if you knew how to type, you were going to be safe even in a unit at the very tip of the spear.
