    i have no idea where you got these numbers, this is complete horseshit. 67 divisions were in europe, 27 in the pacific. -proportionally- more americans died in the pacific, but not even in absolute terms, more yanks still died in europe. the US very clearly dedicated more war materiele & personnel to Europe, there's tracts and tracts of words about the US 'Europe First' policy during the war.

      Yeah, you're right, that was a misread on my part. I'll go ahead and edit it so people don't get bad info.

          No worries, as the Good Book says, "Show me the man on the internet and I'll show you the occasional poorly-sourced opinion."
