Anyone who has studied the European theater of operations must concede that
compared with what the losses that the Russians (er, "Soviets") incurred on
the eastern front, the allies on the western front had a cakewalk.
- The U.S. lost approximately three hundred thousand troops in western
Europe ( http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/ww2-loss.htm );
- In Eastern Europe the Soviet Union lost between eight MILLION eight
hundred thousand and ten MILLION seven hundred thousand (and those numbers
EXCLUDE civilian losses)

- (and I could very well add that Poland went through its very own unique
Hell.....)
