"We liberated Europe from fascism, but they will never forgive us for it" - said some famed Anglo-American field marshal

Ah yes, the country that lost ~180,000 troops in the European theater and didn't actually have any battles on it's home turf did much more to defeat the Nazis than the continent-spanning nation that lost about 9,000,000 troops (not counting ~18,000,000 civilians).

For reference, in all it's wars combined over 200 years, America has lost just over 1,000,000 troops in total.
