WWII in Europe Continued

     Overy makes a decent argument on behalf of the Allies. One of the most influential reasons for Germany's loss was the massive modernization of communication within the Soviet Army. All communication was now centralized around the radio. Radios were installed in most of the tanks and aircrafts allowing for much easier communication between all of the units. With this new source of communication, it became much easier for the Soviet army to work together and coordinate their attacks against the German army while informing each other of the enemy's plans.

     Another addition that helped the allies was the fact that they were able to learn from their past mistakes and use their economic strength to their advantage. They were able to improve the quantity and quality of their military, while putting an emphasis on support personal. By putting a bigger emphasis on support personal and equipment, they were able to keep their army's supplied. Japan only had one back up personal for every soldier while the U.S. had 18 for every one soldier. Meanwhile, Germany focused on strategy and tactics. 

     Thirdly, strategic decisions made by the allies proved to be incredibly influential in the outcome of the war. They decided that the only way to end the war was to attack the main opponent, which in this case was Germany, so the allies focused the brute of their forces on taking out Germany. Astonishingly, 85% of U.S. war efforts was directed at Germany. The allies also spent a lot of money on strategic bombing which effected Germany's ability to fight. Finally, the allies were willing to fight and saw the war efforts as a just cause. everyone was willing to jump in and support their country!
