30% of trucks and transport 8% of the tanks 0% of the casualties: 27 million

Can you elaborate on what you mean, or did you just want to state those numbers? No one is arguing that the US fought on the Eastern Front.

The Marshall plan furnished 30% of the transport etc.

By the time the western allies reached Berlin the Soviets had already wrecked the Germans.

No one is arguing the US fought on the eastern front, the argument is over who suffered the most.

Don't take my word for it, read "When Titans Clashed" by Glantz and House.

Nope, you moved the goalpost here from “who defeated the Nazis”. I am fine with your new claim of who suffered the most.

I did no such thing. The Soviets defeated the nazis and suffered the most.

The US and their vassals merely made you believe their propaganda: Patton the movie et al.

Are you British? They play word games.
