Eisenhower is my buddy. I can drive from my house to North Carolina without ever having to stop at a traffic light. It makes travelling so much easier. And he opened a can of whoop-ass on the nazis. Strategic Daylight Bombing, my man, that's what did it. Kinda hard to properly supply and equip a military when you got B-17s blowing up every factory, railyard, and oil refinery in Europe. You ever read a history of it? Shit's crazy. Those guys had some serious cojones, and in true American fashion, we see something go from being completely ineffective to having overwhelming superiority in only a few years ago. Everyone thought we were crazy when we strapped a shitload of .50 cals to our big bombers and tried to fly them over Europe during the daytime. RAF was already losing enough bombers due to flak at their night raids, and daytime raids allowed bf109s to intercept our bombers. But the pilots got better, the bomber wings became more numerous, and then the P-51 and the drop tank came along. Awwwww shit. Game over, biatches. By the time our troops set foot in Normandy, the Luftwaffe was two guys with a hang glider and a hot air balloon. Just goes to show that victory becomes far more attainable after successful destruction of the enemy's infrastructure. Defeating them in a single battle is useless - you must destroy their ability to wage war, then crush their will to fight.
In my opinion, you have no business fighting a war that you are not willing to win. To do so is to pointlessly waste the lives of American soldiers.
