As you can see the UK lost far more people as a % of it population and the British empire lost far more people. So the British empire payed far more of a price in ww2 than the USA in terms of lives lost.  Still China and Russia pay a far higher price for ww2 than the USA and British empire. We must not forget about China in ww2 as you and many others do.

Do you think the USA did the most to win ww2? if so you as a % you think that USA won ww2. To assum anything in war is bad planning, the USA knew that Canada, Australia, New zealand and other parts of the British empire would come and help the British stop the Germans. Also that there was free people of Europe who came to help Britain and thousands of men. Also the British had the best navy in the world at that time, the German navy was the weakest part of it's military so the British could not have just been taken fast like in France. We both know that the USA and Russia should have came into the war the hour after France was beaten. The fact is that ww2 could not have been won without the British empire, no matter what you say the British empire fought in every theatre in ww2 backing up the USA/Russia/China. Without the British navy and air force D day could not have happened for another year atleast and the Russia may have been beaten in that time. I know that the USA navy was bigger in the last 2 years of the war but the British empire still had more ships in Europe than the USA and thats what won the war in Europe and Asia Naval power the USA and British empire had the naval power and China and Russia the man power. I know that ww2 could not have been won without the USA but the USA did not save the world, 5 great powers did French empire/British Empire/USSA/China/USA. I have been to the ww1 grave yards and their is far more British than American's there.

 

The British even befor the USA came in were bombing Germany, even after the USA was in the war Britain was still getting bombed, when the USA air force had to stop bombing for 3 months because of your huge loses the British kept bombing. The British ground force were fighting in north African and other place, The British had enough men in Europe but there was not enough tanks to beat the Germans with thats what the USA gave the British Tanks. You do know that the total GDP of Britain at that time was 240 billion not including the rest of the British empire, the UK did not pass the debt on to it's empire something we get no credit for doing.  

 

I also think Russia goes on to much about it's part in ww2, because without the USA and Britain sending them weapons, oil and food they would have been crushed between Germany and Japan. Also most of the Germans who died on the eastern front, died because of the weather and the Russia camps. Russia also played both side they can't ever be forgiven for killing so many polish and not stopping the Germans sooner.

 

People will pay more attention if you provide sources for your ideas.  And making the claims you are, it's almost mandatory.  You might want to search the archives, as this has been hashed over many times.

And BTW- US war planners had already gone on the assumption that the UK would be over run and therefore unusable as a base. The war would have been won without you.

 

 

Afaik, The only assistance the British asked for in the Falklands was the use of the US base at Diego Garcia, which they recieved.  They were offered military aid, but declined, saying that they could handle things alone.  Which they did quite nicely.

 

The Falkland are British and the USA should back Britain up over them.
