Why do some Americans believe they single handedly won WW2?

He is just ignorant of the fact they invaded in two places I guess and that Morocco and Algeria are nowhere near each other.

There were three landing points, two in the Med, and one from the Atlantic.

The US gave around $31 billion in military aid to the UK during WWII. Included 14,000 aircraft, 13,000 tanks, 400,000 trucks, and millions of tons of fuel and food. The US gave the Russians over $11 billion. 1000's of aircraft, tanks and tons of fuel and food.

As I stated the US didn't win the war alone, but without it's aid and industrial might it would have certainly been lost

Which was stated by no less than Stalin.

We were no more ready then than the UK was at the time of Munich.

Germany was even less ready at the time. Had anyone shown any spine, Hitler would have failed-backed down, or removed in a coup.

Algeria is on the med coast and sits right next to Morrocco and ignoring the fact that Germany and Italy couldn't effectively respond to the invasion because of the British offensive in Libya and the interdiction of the med sea lanes just shows how stupid you are.

First, learn how to spell Morocco and then maybe you can find it on a map.

As you can see the landings in Morocco were on the Atlantic coast. You would have been shit out of luck without us squids to point you and haul you to the beach!

Please, jarheads should not even have maps if you aren't going to use them!
