Balkenkreutz,
Pretty weak argument there. The United States and Britain are among the world leaders in economics and leadership. I see that Germany has had a resurgent problem with the National Socialist Workers Party credo in the form of Skinheads. I'm not saying that the Allied nations haven't had their problems but, who did the German's rely on for help (i.e. The Berlin Airlift) and NATO for their protection during the Cold War. Which by the way, who won the cold war? I don't recall much in the way of participation from Germany. Don't take this the wrong way as I do not hate Germans, I admire a lot of their technology. It's just that I really take umbrage when the IGAF pilots are glorified and the Allied pilots are portrayed as mediocre prevaricating men. They had just as much courage to get up there and fight as any German pilot did, perhaps more in the face of what the Germans were achieving in the air. But don't come back with arguments like "they are world leaders blah, blah, blah." Because they wouldn't be where they are if it weren't for the American capitol that has been poured in by the buttloads after the war. Did we owe it to them, no!!! They brought the war and it's consequences on themselves.
VBR,
Jim
