Come on old thing, most Brits over forty know that both Russia and the US were essential to winning WWII. However we have never forgotten that though we started in Sept '39, you guys joined in in Dec '41, six months after Germany invaded Russia in operation Barbarossa, and trampling over the Nazi-Soviet pact.
In fact you chaps didn't even declare War on Hitler's Germany then. Germany decalred war on you.
Just giving historical context. :)
