US taking credit in WWII is only happening in US. In EU we consider USSR being the one that took the most hit and the one that eventually made a final push to win that war.
If you learn history by watching American movies then I can see people believing we won it.
But in school I was taught the old adage: American steel, British intelligence, and Russian blood won the war.
Correction: American Steal
Ding Ding Ding... America only joined the actual war effort after France had fallen and the UK could not continue to buy stuff them them.
Yeah, because nothing else happened that could have caused it. Especially in Hawaii
