The history taught in the US is a bit off.... The schools in the US make it sound like the US saved the day with the landings in Normandy. This doesn't take into account that the war started five years earlier while the US did little in Europe while the Soviets fought the bulk of the war....
Then again, on the other hand, the United States was fighting a war of it's own in the Pacific against Japan.
