Two quibbles. I have more but I will limit it. The Buffalo was built by Brewster Aircraft Co., a U.S. manufacturer. It was used by Australia but was not a British plane. Strictly speaking Finland is not a Scandinavian country. I realize that is a really fine point but that's the fun.

Hard indeed. I flopped after a decent start. My Dad knew a TON about WW2 and would have aced most of this. Some of the right answers I got I got from him. We learned a certain amount about the war in high school but not nearly enough. I picked up a bit more in university with one elective(I was an English major). Tough quiz but fun.

3/4 wrong. Husky’s commander, carriers at midway, Spanish troops in Russia (didn’t even consider Spain as an answer) and Finland ‘Allied WITH? Germany’. Still I guess the referee’s interpretation of the answer is final , Though I agree with @James de Gomar bellow

@RWGish 6 ай бұрын

It's really a stretch to claim Finland was briefly a German ally. Yes, they fought the Soviets for awhile but that conflict had nothing to do with the Nazis and was fought primarily before the Germans invaded Russia. Also, the invasion of the Philippines happened a few days before Leyte Gulf.

@brooksroth345 Жыл бұрын

Do you also sent arms and equipment to Finland? America, Britain, Germany, and Holland. After the German invasion they were allied against the Soviets and cooperated militarily. The Finns secured the northern area above Leningrad during the siege of that city. Once the Soviets started winning the Fins distanced themselves from Germany but it didn't help because the Russians invaded anyway in 1944.

@chrigul1 Жыл бұрын

Mannerheim was in a difficult position, after the second part of the war ahainst Russia, he had to give away some territory. With the invasion of USSR by the Germans, he saw a chance to take back the lost territory. But he was always in diplomatic contact with the west-allies. They put great pressure on Mannerheim, so that he had to cancel the weaponry friendship with the 3rd Reich. He gave the Wehrmacht a time limit to go out of their positions in Finland. After that they were no more allies, it even came to some fighting against retreating german troops, altough with bitter regrets.
