I mean
The U.S. literally did not suffer that many cuasalties, like we only suffered 1 million total causalties during the entire war, 400,000 deaths, which is 220 soldiers per day killed on the U.S. Side
6 years = 2,190 days
That’s an absolute fuck ton of people
12k a day
"Hey Klaus, should we spare troops for ze front?"
"Nein Hans, we need to cook der Juden!"
The U.S. literally did not suffer that many causalties in WWII, so looking at U.S. causalties is not really a good figure, as you have to look at all the military's combined, and all the civilians killed in the war, many due to starvation, a lack of things like medical infrastrucutre and so on
Even then
12k people per day
Is insane
That would be entire cities every day
The Nazis had already begun killing the jews before WWII even started, and the gypsies, and various others and on top of this turned on the russians despite it sucking up virtually all their troop strength. Yes they were stupid and wasted troops to continue murdering millions of innoccent people, it was the end goal
That’s my entire town 4x over
I think the numbers are overblown
@everybodydothatdinosaur When you say per day, do mean post-US joining the war, or since 1939? Because you'd realistically have to count from Pearl Harbour.
lolwat
If my entire town died in a single day
4 times
Yes, it was entire cities every day, the thing is it was massive cities every month
THe U.S. also doesn't lose that many men in war, so that's not a good comparison, how many men we lost per day is not the same as some tiny little country with no ability to defend itself
@Kinky Kitsune (Coomer) Memorials for thousands, hundreds, tens, and even singles.
The U.S. lost about 220 men per day in WWII
ok so 2190 (the ammount of days in 6 years) X 12k = ~26 million
the US basically lost no one in comparison
Yes, we just didn't lose that many men by comparison
so the number of average killed daily would have to be higher to kill 60million in 6 years
but that only the average
We're kind of bad-ass, also we just didn't have a lot of civilians in Europe obviously
Just did some research
And through the entire war
The most populous city ever bombed
in the persian gulf war, the U.S. lost 292 men vs. 25,000 to 50,000 for iraq. Like we tend to slaughter people
london?
