      America and soviet union did play important parts, but there’s also, yknow, europe itself. A combined effort of multiple countries. UK wasn’t forgotten, and I remember french resistance being talked about, and more.

      So the message we got was really not “[insert nation here] came in and saved the day on their own”

        America also teaches about that?

        I’d say if we overlook anyone it’s China, because then Americans might realize the Japanese had bled themselves dry before Pearl Harbor, and the Balkan fronts/resistances.

        And obviously India as the meme mentions.

          I can’t remember what was said of India, so I guess the submerged skeleton part checks out. Though it could also be me not paying attention.
