from a Canadian.Hitler had 6,000,000 troops
poised&ready to invade the english mainland.
Hitler was ready to invade but his air force
commander Herman Goering said let me take care
of it with my planes.Thus commenced the battle
of britan!With every ounce of resource and many
pilots from many other nations,britain launched
there defence/counterattack clobbering the german
airforce.By this massive defeat and loss and
Hitler totally enraged he turned those 6million
troops to the eastern front and attacked russia
instead.Of course many scenarios took place to
end the war but to me the battle of Britain
was a major turning point and shows the true
power of a people backed in a corner and
displaying uncommon valour.I still to this day
cannot listen to SKY PILOTS.. a song by the
Animals without getting a little misty.
