THOSE WHO CAN vs THOSE WHO CAN'T
During
the 3-1/2
years of World
War ll that
started with
the Japanese
bombing of
Pearl Harbor
in December
1941 and ended
with the
Surrender of
Germany and
Japan in
1945.....
22
aircraft
carriers,
8
battleships,
48
cruisers,
349
destroyers,
420
destroyer
escorts,
203
submarines,
34
million tons
of merchant
ships,
100,000
fighter
aircraft,
98,000
bombers,
24,000
transport
aircraft,
58,000
training
aircraft,
93,000
tanks,
257,000
artillery
pieces,
105,000
mortars,
3,000,000
machine guns,
and 2,500,000
military
trucks.
We put
16.1 million
men in uniform
in the various
armed
services,
invaded
Africa,
invaded Sicily
and Italy, won
the battle for
the Atlantic,
planned and
executed
D-Day, marched
across the
Pacific and
Europe,
developed the
atomic bomb,
and ultimately
conquered
Japan and
Germany.
It's
worth noting,
that during
the almost
exact amount
of time, the
Obama
Administration
couldn't even
build a web
site that
worked.
