Query: war as it was

this book shows how an armoured division operated in world war 2.the amount of material needed was immense.the division lost 600 tanks and many crews.it never ceases to highlight the cost of loss of crews.it shows how the allies went through most if the war after the d-day invasion with tanks which were inadequete to the task.the german tanks were superior to allied tanks.the support services to keep the tanks going were immence and the initiave shown in this case by american soldiers was a large factor in keeping the army operativemany of the problems would have been similar had the book been written by a british serviceman.the book shows the great contribution made by the us home front.the number of tanks replaced in northern europe was in the order of several thousand and there were also tanks supplied to the allies.this was over a period of less that 12 months.that is from a quick estimate from the book and based on the northern europe area alone.
