The US showed up 4 years late, almost 2 years after the turning point of the war, the battle of Stalingrad. Even at that point, they still faced less than 30% of the nazi divisions, while the USSR faced the other 70%. And euroamericans still think they won the war. Pathetic.
Oh right, now I remember.
It was a forum discussion with an American and I told him that due to them being late the Soviet Union had to sacrifice ~90% of all allied soldiers, while the US did the last ~5% or so.
[Edit]
11.4 million soldiers vs 0.4 million,
making it 97% vs 3%.
The Soviets also faced more veteran soldiers (they’d been fighting on the Eastern front for years) while soldiers stationed in France were less experienced, as France had already been conquered.

Wasn’t it 10-90%?
Or have the Japanese been counted in as well?
Here are the numbers throughout the war.
