America's contribution to WW2....
What are the biggest contributions of America in WW2, the the turning points...
Right now I am writting a paper. I need 3. I have D-Day (Utah and Omaha beach), the bombing of Hiroshima, what else would be important to mention? (Has to be between 1942-1945) NOT PEARLHARBOR |
Maybe the Battle of the Bulge.. allmost lost it at that point but the troops pulled through.
|
midway perhaps? marking a turning point in the Pacific War (1937hahaha8211;1945). For the host of short-term and long-term consequences it spawned, it was the most important naval battle fought in the Pacific, and perhaps in all of World War II...

America contributed to the war? Okay, if you say so :1orglaugh
Regards, Lee |
do pearl harbor. it was the turning point for us entering the war, plus somewhere inside there is a consiracey on how the gov. knew they were coming and did nothing to stop it.

Not as much as your mom contributed to the soldiers. |
The Battle of the Bulge would be fun to do just because you'd get to use the word "NUTS!" in it.

that's what decided that war... |
42 - American naval victory at Battle of Midway, in June, marks turning point in Pacific War. Mass murder of Jewish people at Auschwitz begins
43 - Surrender at Stalingrad marks Germany's first major defeat. Allied victory in North Africa enables invasion of Italy to be launched. Italy surrenders, but Germany takes over the battle. 44 - D Day: The Allied invasion of France. Paris is liberated in August. Guam liberated by the US Okinawa, and Iwo Jima bombed. 45 - Auschwitz liberated by Soviet troops. Russians reach Berlin: Hitler commits suicide and Germany surrenders on 7 May. Truman becomes President of the US on Roosevelt's death, and Attlee replaces Churchill. |

Lets see.. WW2 started in 1939 in Spain with Franco? (US was chewing bubble gum) ? In 1940 Germany and Soviets divided Europe (US was chewing bubble gum) ? In 1941 Germany attacked Soviets ( you right US was still chewing bubble gum)? In 1942 Germany was 60 kilometers from Soviets capital (guess what Us was doing ???? Still chewing the bubble gum!!)? In 1943??? In 1944? (well the bazooka gum still tasted the same except for Japanese that were as big as state of New Hampshire ..but they did beat them ).. In June of 1944 (5 years after WW2) and Soviets were kicking Nazi ass in Poland, US decided to give it a try.. So as you can tell if it wasn?t for you, your teacher and president we would be all speaking German right now.

Stalingrad was just made a bigger issue historically because of the fight of Stalin and Hitler initative of battling to the last man. Neither would give in, or retreat. So it's made a lot bigger because of that, and the pointless loss of life in a battle for the biggest ball sack. :disgust |

It started in 1936 and ended in April 1939. The world war started in September 1939 when Germany invaded Poland |
