re: Almost intact StuG III discovered buried in sand along German North Sea Coast

Guderian was pushing for that. He wanted more Pz Mk IV and V. Hitler fortunately felt otherwise.

Definitely a few in tank museums.

14 are operational.

What would Germanys Plan B have been?

Syphillis was gonna get better in 1944

WVB and Co. don't escape to the US/USSR. That means we would see the NAZI flag on the moon in the mid 60s instead of America's on 1969. With their rocket technology, the Germans nuke the allied Soviets with ICBMs. The Germans needed Ukraine's resources so I suspect the final lines would run from Kviv in the south to St Petersburg in the north. Germany would be an even greater superpower than the Soviets IOTL.

Assuming Japan still surrenders as IOTL... No Vietnam war with France colonies still under German control. South Korea gets quickly overrun without the UN. (How many of us would exist if our parents/grandparents had suitors who never died in either place?)

I don't think we would be all that much different in the US if the British Isles stay independent (Hitler would likely agree to it if they surrendered their commonwealth countries). Of course that opens up the possibility of pro-Germany governments in Canada/Mexico and Australia in the Pacific. Worst case, the US has to trade Alaska for peace.

Interesting post. What are your thoughts on the middle east
