@Keitel87 Believe me, The founders are not the only ones ashamed of the self centered me above all else complex we have developed. I am an old man now, but I still believe my generation lived in the best that America had to offer. It's still the best place in the world to live in spite of all the jackasses who are trying to run the place.

@pacmnn25 as a person from the U.K I wouldn't comment on Friendly Fire. it was the British who coined that word.

also note the British killed 215 Americans in 1943 all in 1 night. O ya and a good number of there own too that night.

the first thing a British Spitfire shot down was 2 British Hurricans,

Battle of waterloo the British fired on the Prussians when they entered the field.

the Polish submarine ORP Jastrzab was sunk by HMS St Albans and HMS Seagull.

I can go on with this...

I'm not sure wether I mentioned the Eagle Sq or if that was just you. With regards to those brave pilots I have not a single bad word, they were certainly more industrious than the rest of the US who failed to recognise the threat posed by Hitler's armies. No offence intended to the US, just grading those pilots above the rest. As well as Americans there were Polls, Indians, F.French and a pletheron of others who are held in high esteem.

I cant even remember what my comments were, they were after all TEN months ago or so. I cant find anything wrong with your theory and doubt that it dissagrees with mine.

"No wonder why america won."?

It's rather unfortunate that they did, for Americans have long since strayed from the path the Continental Congress set down. Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and the like would be ashamed of the mass ignorance that plagues modern America.

@whoorderedasexybeast whoops.. what was the eagle squadron again??? i thought they were AMERICAN volunteers...

[andrevisser1988]

@whoorderedasexybeast they only made it by an inch, and if hitler didnt attack the sowjet union, all of europe would have fallen under the jackboot of nazi agression. furthermore, if he had listened to Goebbels, the 10th and 11th fighter squadrons would have collapsed due to lack of reinforcements.. so every european nation should be grateful to hitler's stupidity... and America would'nt have fought in europe when hitler did'nt declare war after Pearl... and i doubt of the uk ewould have won...

[IC2720]

won what ? we made you.

[HoIic]

No wonder why america won.

[heinrichguzmann]
