Russia says D-Day's significance 'should not be exaggerated'

[War Chef]

It's debatable how helpful the lend lease was to the overall war-effort.

[Dragoon]

Well lets face it DDay was small compared to Stalingrad let alone the whole Eastern Front.

Finally a sensible comment on that. Some people swear the Soviets would lose and others say it did nothing.

Its worth comparing the amount received by vs the production levels.

Lend Lease US to USSR:

totaled around $11 billion dollars (old money)
427,000 trucks
13,000 combat vehicles
35,000 motorcycles
and other things.

Certainly it helped.

But production levels:

120,000 tanks and spgs
200,000 vehicle
520,000 artillery
22,000 fighters
37,000 attack
21,000 bombers

We don't need Russians for that, my Uncles took care of Germans in Montecassino May 18 1944.

I wouldn't be so proud about that if I were you.

That why German Mediterranean bitch niggas have to live in Brazil now, alie?

Yeah, I live abroad because of WWII, makes sense. (Btw, this is at least the third time people start, out of nowhere, "hey dude, you live in Brazil" you should be more concerned about your own lives, or at least about the fellow SSA moving to Europe instead. Some people carry so misarable lives that makes it very clear in their common statements)

DDay was similar sized battle to Tali-Ihantala.

Why write paragraph and use memes?

Polish flag raised already, you are weakest link goodbye, hide in Brazil.

You are choosing to ignore natural resources.

This is actually the truth.

Without shekkels from USA and intel service from the Brits, Soviet Union would suffer much more than they already did from Germans. I'm pretty sure that without the donations from USA both Great Britain and the soviets would never stop the Germans.

You've been brainwashed too much by propaganda. The SU beat Germany alone on the eastern front, the Western "help" had minimal impact on the real fighting.

Pretty good videos:
