They killed way more Nazis than the western Allies did. And liberated way more of Europe. And suffered way more casualties in the process.

Simple numbers

What was their risk factor vs. Americans, hmm?

Obviously the risk factor was pretty high since they lost so many soldiers and civilians.

More Russians died in the siege of Leningrad than all Americans soldiers and civilians died in the entire war

Russia could not have done a damn thing without the US.

Russia didn't have boats patrolling and dropping depth charges on German U-boats.

You better try somebody else that doesn't know how it was.

Showing a democracy could survive. At least so far.

You could spin WWII a number of ways

Were we the heroes because we traveled across the sea to help win a war in Europe that didn’t involve us?

Was the USSR the heroes because they killed the most Germans and lost the most soldiers?

Was Britain the heroes because they were a small island nation that stood alone against the Nazis for years while the USA and the USSR twiddled their thumbs on the sidelines?
