You must have been referring to the comments below. Not what I would hope for, but better than nothing.
I falsely assumed the same public servants would be upset too.

Go back and read all the posts, you are the only one saying the US did all the work.
You also seem to be having a really hard time understanding the impact 13 millions troops, tanks, aircraft, aircraft carriers, and battleships have in a war.
That is not to say, they would or could have won it alone. Simply that without them, things were not going so well and after they arrived, things got better.
Now if you are looking for an ego driven statement, how about this. I do believe you could have removed any other single country from the war and still won. If we were still there. It's a matter of numbers and power. We accounted for roughly 38% of the troops and 50% (discounting the atomic bomb, which only we had at the time) of the fire power. In a war involving 15 or so allies. Now you can revise your history any way you like, but facts are facts. We made a significant difference.

This is straying way off topic, I will cease and desist.
