As to your 'saved you a$ in the 1940's' pish. Think you may find Mr. Stalin's troops had a far bigger say than any latecomers.
Oh really we didn't have much of a say? Late comers? Check your history. I do believe our involvement prior to our actual military engagement, with the exception of some US military volunteers that chose to come to your country and fight with your military in the early stages, was early on we supplied your country with massive amounts of arms, planes, ships and supplies. So it's really nice of you to think Mr Stalin had a greater impact to your survival of the war then the country that provided supplies your country so desperately needed to survive and continue your fight. Yep we're the Americans, always ready to step in when it's needed and sometimes when it's not then take heat afterwards because we do.
My post was a reminder to the gentleman who chose to knock us who proudly serve, have served & live in this country who are proud of those little stars.
