It's sad seeing Brits, and Americans argue about who contributed more, or who had more "honor". You had no part in the war, none of us were alive at that time and yet we take credit for what our ancestors did as if we did it ourselves. It doesn't matter who did what or who fought first, they fought together and died together for one great cause. Stop acting like fucking enemies and start acting like allies. Remember what they fought for, not who did what. Our ancestors wouldn't act like this.

@se7enhands yeah russia came from the east and USA from the west. how can you say usa wasnt involved at all in the war? seriously?

[se7enhands]

@cards7509 no they didn't. they found it fancy to leave half of europe to the russians, so whether you like it or not, the ussr liberated that part.

In minute 4:57, was part of my WWII tour through Normandy, Pas-de-Calais. Alot of steps to get to the top. But we did it. If you haven't visited The Normandy Cementary its a must see. You will get a glimpse of the mission and how impossible it must have been for the US to take Dog Green sector with the German's having a clear line of fire and on top of the ridge. I take my hat off to those that died and fought in that battle. And in reality, that's the true US War. All others were for money

@ BantyxRooster : my grandparents were Belgian and they thought the same way You do !!! Actually got my arse kicked as a 6 year old because a Canadian drunk soldier kicked my grandmother while she was pregnant (she lost the child) and I said I hated the allies : my grandmother said : "You"ll never know what those guys went through for You to say what You can say now....).....! respect for those who were in the frontlines !!!

Haha, look at 'em capitalists strolling in to fight zi nazis. Just another tourist walk around Europe compared to the Russians. It'll be interesting to see how an average american soldier looked compared with a russian one. Tall, well fed and nice with the ladies while the russian one, battle weary, covered in wounds, knowing in the same time that a life of fear and and repression awaited him home after the horrors of the front. I wonder in the end, who was the real hero?
