why did it take 6 months for the allies to finish this?

Astonishing iron might of the German will to resist.

the americans remove all brits from higher command and actually close the falaise pocket

Imagine these borders.

If the Germans were so le evil, why did hundreds of thousands of Eastern Euro civilians flee with the army, or by ferry from Riga?
Furthermore, why did the Soviets sink those refugee ships?
>>
>>17277455
Because those civilians were genocidal German settlers. Not actual native slavs.

They deserved to die. In their death they helped fascilate the creation of goodness through their destruction.

>Furthermore, why did the Soviets sink those refugee ships?
One ship that was going around without any markers that it was a non military ship
>>
>>17277221
The Soviets were basically spent, and the Western Allies were bogged down by the Second Battle of the Ardennes, which upset their momentum.

Germans being evil doesn't mean the soviets weren't also evil
>>
>>17278547
It's akin to comparing a petty bandit with a king murdering millions. The evil of Nazi Germany is such that it makes every other form of evil seem lesser in comparison. Also the destruction of Nazi germany was such a inherently noble and pure act that everybody who helped partake in it was totally cleansed of sins.

>>17278605
Stalinist Russia scares me more but I agree about nazi germany being evil desu.
>>
>>17278605
Yes but Soviets were the evilest by far

Hmm, no. Sorry nazi, you're still the worst.

Like shut the fuck up man. Are you a woman? No one cares. It wasn’t evil, it was cool. Seethe about it.

Reduced mission creep. Very soon after they didn't have to bother with supporting their allies apart from remnants of Italy, they didn't have to worry about managing much of the occupied territory, partisans became less of a problem, all there was to do was to defend and try to bleed their enemies enough for them to maybe come in and propose some sort of peace terms
>>
>>17278818
Also note that the western allies had gigantic supply issues due to a bunch of French ports being occupied by German troops until the end of the war
>>
>>17278800
It was cool BECAUSE it was evil
Like Darth Vader or the Nazgul

it helped the major german industrial areas in the Rhine land, Silesia and Pomerania were creeping closer to the front.
>>
>>17278605
Hahahhahah what is this
>>
>>17278793
Germans are. Allow them to fester and they will cause the entire foundation to collapse.

>>17278800
Why don't you follow Hitler by shooting yourself, you evil fucking subhuman. Every moment you are alive is making this planet a worse place.
>>
>>17277455
those were ethnic Germans and other peoples considered 'Germanic' like Masurians, idiot
>>
>>17279560
What did masurians do wrong to deserve such a terrible fate
>>
>>17277221
Allies outran their supply lines in the advances of the summer of 1944 and took time to reorganise while Germany had the advantage of interior lines.

It could've been longer if they didn't send their best units to die in the forest for nothing

I’m so glad your retards are killing each other in the tens of thousands right now, it truly puts a smile to my face.
I hope that this war never ends, so I can watch more of you slavmuttoid retards get btfo by drones, while I can kick back and relax with popcorn and have a good laugh.

Soviet=Evil

Astonishing unwavering cruelty of the Nazi will to sacrifice it's people for a few more seconds of breath
>>

Uh no most of the surviving Jewish population of Eastern Europe chose to flee with the German Army from the USSR
>>
>>17280016
Slavs will exist in 100 years, Germans won't.
>>
>>17282227
Germans can always have more kids, Slavs can not be raised from the dead.

Slavic men will die of alcoholism/aids/war while their women blend in with western European men.

Russians continued to be trash and continued to take disproportionate losses despite a huge material advantage against under supplied opponents. This remained true even when they were fighting extremely poorly supplied forces comprised of old men and boys with little training.

Meanwhile, America remained very casualty averse. Even when they were making long distance amphibious landings against prepared defenses they were bodying the Wermacht 6:1 (e.g. Dragoon), and later there is stuff like the Ruhr pocket where it is like 150:1.

So you have a mix of things. America's unwillingness to push for speed at significant cost and the Soviets inability to value the lives of their own men, which actually began to slow progress at the end because losses held up progress.

The Germans did a good job given what they had too. They were hopelessly outgunned, especially in the West where even veteran Eastern Front formations got raped because of the huge gap in mechanized mobility and fire power supremacy.

But that fire power supremacy slowed the US because they wanted to make sure they had it everywhere.
>>
>>17277455
Spoiler: Stalin and the Soviets were also evil.
>>
>>17282227
ALL of your precious Slav*c whores will breed with BWC (Big Western Cock) while you Slavi* “men” get your dicks blown off by drones and mines.
This is the future for the Slavoid ‘‘‘‘‘man’’’’’

Hitler had a weird fetish for getting hundreds of thousands of battle-experienced men locked up in useless pockets

This thread convinced me that Germans didn't have their asses kicked to the ground by everybody and his dog but were actually stronk!!

Market Garden threw the allies off their momentum. It was a result of hubris because Overlord succeeded beyond all expectations so the allies began beliving they had vastly overestimated the German army and could even end the war already in 1944.

Soviets were mostly slowed by rivers and cities. Budapest, Königsberg, Vistula and Oder crossing. The Wehrmacht was still prioritizing it's strength in the east, and the allies were advancing very slow and cautiously after Market Garden and the Ardenne offensive.

Austrian bulls held off army for so long
Allies could never have conquered the Alpenfestung but Hitler had to cuck out and kill himself
