Just gotta wait for Pakistan to start wading in.
BTW anyone else noticed that China and India have started a full on shooting border dispute, casualties reported on both sides, after a large buildup by the Chinese recently and apparent incursions into Indian territory and vice versa (according to China).

It's classic Jay read one book and it's formed his entire holier than thou knowledgeable opinion on something, which with even the smallest scrutiny unravels.
"many books" but the first one you mention as though it's undeniable evidence that you know what you're talking about, when in fact it's actually laughable that you mentioned it.
And again Sherman's support the infantry and vice versa, tank destroyers and AT guns fight tanks.

that's the exact book I had in mind you dolt, it's completely debunked, using false stats, and anecdotal bullshit.Jay wrote:

Yes, the Soviets did the majority of the fighting and dying. The British and Americans got their butt kicked by Rommel and his numerically inferior forces in North Africa, and they took forever to defeat a numerically inferior opponent in Italy. Both our weapons and our tactics were inferior to the Germans. We, like the Soviets, simply overwhelmed German troops with artillery and air support, and interdicted their supply lines, thus refusing them resupply. The Germans we fought at Normandy were crippled, lame, or conscripts from conquered Eastern European countries. They still caused tens of thousands of casualties. The Germans we fought at The Bulge had a large number of teenagers.
A lot of the issue that American forces had was the stubbornness of the procurement bureaucracy. They didn't like new weapons or tactics. General McNair refused to upgrade the Sherman tank, stating that he felt it was adequate. He also insisted on having separate tank destroyer units rather than building heavier tanks. The Sherman tank was a piece of shit and was responsible for tens of thousands of American and British deaths.
Because the Sherman was such a piece of shit and a liability, it's only use was in exploiting breakouts and in movement. Once the Western Front bogged down in order to feed Montgomery supplies, the German forces were allowed to regroup and bring up Panther and Tiger tanks, and the American forces were once again forced to rely on the Sherman tank as they had in Normandy, slogging it out in attrition battles in which the Sherman crews took a beating. Pausing for Market Garden was a political decision made to stop the V-2 rockets. It extended the war and cost many lives. Patton should've been released to keep going.
All the stuff you said about the Sherman is debunked rubbish from coffee table books and shite TV. The "slogging it out in attrition battles" thing is a tactical issue vs doctirnal issue, the whole point Shermans supported infantry tank destroyers fight the tanks...
Check the survival rates of Sherman crews and tanks and how quickly they would be back in action after taking hits compared to virtually anything else.
Again we run into the "im good at maths, but post bullshit numbers" problem 10,000s of deaths because the Sherman really???
Market Garden really wasn't anything to do with V2's either...
"As a memoir, it is meandering and repetitive, far too often wandering away from the authors personal experiences into the realm of speculation. As a history it is lacking, containing no end notes, foot notes or bibliography. And finally, as an indictment of the M4 Sherman tank, the book is filled with so many factual errors and outright falsehoods, it cannot be taken seriously on this count either." Highly recommended by Jay though.
"10s of thousands of American and British lives", must have mainly been us poor Brits seen as only about 1,400 US tankers AS A WHOLE were killed in action.

The war might indeed have been shortened if they hadn't redirected supplies to Montgomery's failed Operation Market Garden instead of to his charging tanks. The Germans were on the run and the delay allowed them to regroup.
The people who think that the war would have ended quicker if Patton, a fool only good at one thing, was allowed to do what he wanted to do completely overlaps with the people who think America singlehandedly won the war. World War 2 was decided on the Eastern Front. By the time D-Day happened, it was clear that the Red Army was going to overrun Germany. D-Day and the western front's main contribution was tying up troops that would have been killed failing to defend Berlin. The biggest success of D-Day wasn't defeating the Germans in Normandy. It was liberating France before the Red Army got there.
Secondly, the Germans Patton led against weren't the best Germany had to offer. The German army was depleted on the Eastern Front while the U.S. were the best supplied army in the world. Let's not exaggerate his accomplishments as a general.
Third, Patton was a meathead and history proved his idea about launching a war on the Soviet Union was ridiculous. Multiple times his poor judgement almost lost him his command. And considering the outcome of the Cold War, patience proved to have been the best course of action. What would have happened if we declared war on the Soviet Union? Nuclear war, millions of more dead (a lot of them Americans) and unstable democracies across the Eastern Europe that would have elected comedians and little Putins just like they did in our timeline when they got democracy without having to nuke them repeatedly. The only person who would have been happy with this result? Gunslinger in our timeline once he saw the demographic death toll.
And finally, if you are going to study World War 2, the Eastern Front is the good stuff. Oh and the Pacific War was lame compared to the Sino-Japanese war.

Patton was massively overextended and supply lines were becoming a huge issue. Marker Garden was a big risk, but was one worth taking.unnamednewbie13 wrote:
Wasn't one of the lines of thinking that Patton could have overextended and become enveloped in an reorganized elastic defense at the cost of Allied lives, fuel, and other resources that were needed elsewhere. That at the time it was seen as more risky than Market Garden, and why should we bleed for land that might be expected to be turned over to the Soviet Union occupation zone once Berlin capitulate.Jay wrote:

"baseline maths skills" Still waiting to see anything that can give credence to you're average 50,000 flu deaths a year, and 100,000 not being abnormal.

Yes the data is relatively hard to find. But you saying the average is 50,000 and 100 wouldn't be abnormal, just isn't true... 100,000 is perhaps "normal" for a major pandemic, of which there's been 3 in the last century that have hit near that 100,000 figure in the US, yes. But otherwise...Jay wrote:
The numbers aren't very good, are they? I tried looking as well. The problem is that no one really notices the flu. It's kind of always in the background but it only ever really negatively impacts nursing homes and the like.coke wrote:
Well I found a chart from a paper published by the American Journal of Public Health, and it goes to 1976, and the y axis for number of deaths only goes up to 50,000, but apparently that's the average and 100,000 is within the norms.

"100,000 not abnormal"
"50k average"

Been only just over 50,000 deaths once in the past decade...

Going back to 2010, according to the CDC the highest confirmed number was 51,000. 2017-18 was estimated at 61k.
And whilst the last decade isn't the broadest set of data to be working with, I would say that 100,000 is actually very abnormal and the average of 50,000 is more like less than 40,000.
I'd like to see when 100,000 deaths was part of the norm?
