The whole planes on the deck story was debunked, by the japs themselves no less.
Midway was a phenomenal screw up by the nips, who could not get their CAP airborne due to shitty decisions. The us did get a bit of luck with their lost squadron tho

Midway, Battle of the Bulge, and The Battle off Samar are some of the finest moments in US military history.
Against all odds Americans went into battle, held strong, and came out victorious.

I'm Vietnamese, so I'll give you a quick rundown on Vietnam. Humid as hell, you'll probably get infected by a horrible jungle disease if you visit(Almost lost my brother when we visited last time), the people that are horrifically mutated from agent orange and live in orphanages due to parents abandoning them. Also, if you're Chinese, don't let anyone know or the will hate you.

Overall, it's a pretty nice place, and you eat some interesting food.

Siege of tobruk, Milne bay, el alemain. Australia also had a massive contribution to victories on the western front despite only being roughly 5% of the allied force.

Battle of Hastings
The moment we made England our colony

We sunk the flagship of the German invasion fleet and proceeded to hold their forces off for half a year, longer than any other country occupied by the Nazis in WW2, with nothing but skis and 1800s-era guns.

I Dont see a little french flag in the corner of ours

>>128853764
I'd argue Brits had a major advantage since they were fighting on their home turf. Jerries had to worry about having enough fuel to reach combat, survive and fly back with the same amount of fuel thye took off with. Needless to say Brits did put up a spectacular fight, 8% achieving Ace status is pretty impressive.

Anyways, Battle of Grunwald is really the few things we have to brag about. Battle of the Blue Waters and Battle of Saule are okay, too.

The hole war was one sided swedish victory after victory, but russia used scorched earth tactics. And att poltava our king was not abel to lead the Battle so his incompetent generals tock over.

No but, I guess the battles during the thirty years wars was the most impressive.
The reason we basically crushed our enemies while being outnumbered in 95% of every battle. Was because we used extremely aggressive tactics and relied heavily on hand-to-hand close combat. Which is pretty fucking alpha.

>>128838237
I don't think any Battle will ever beat Midway in US history just based around all the circumstances and importance of that battle. I wish I could travel in time and watch it just a bunch of giant ships no where near each other fighting each other in a decisive battle was a pretty big deal and unheard of back in the day.
