I saw a report that told how much of the Soviet supplies came from the US' lend lease programs, something like 89% of their oil came from the United States and something like 50% of their Iron Ore came from the US. It was not the United States Military that saved the world from Hitler, it was our Industrial Capability, the Arsenal for Democracy.
