I've been saying for six years that WW3 will be China vs. USA and USA would probably fall.

Add terrorism into the mix, and North Korea and we have a war that'll turn the skies black.

Shouldn't the animals have a vote to take all the power away from humanity and give it to horses and toucans? I've never seen a horse or a toucan do wrong, and to tell the truth I think that Chris Reeves got what was coming to him. Big hot shot actor trying to be a badass on a horse.

More like Crussia. China isn't shit, unless you're talking about man power. Their weaponry and Armies are second rate, but they're building up for the oncoming WW3. 2 million in their Army now, apparently in war time they can expand that to 5 million...

Good luck California and Mexico.

Americans were up front for Battle of Normandy (Operation Overlord)
but British troops were droped behind enemy lines and it was their
job to eat the Germans front the inside out...

China could crush the US by simply stopping exports to them.
Do that for a month or 2 and the US would be fucked.
Everything would crash. China would just stay a float simply because
they provide so much stuff to the rest of the world.

Omaha Beach
Main article: Omaha Beach


Troops in an LCVP landing craft approach Omaha beach June 6, 1944.On Omaha Beach, the U.S. 1st Infantry underwent the worst ordeals of the landings. There was less deployment of available specialised armour on Omaha than on the other landing beaches (American commanders had turned down the offer of what they called "eccentric" British inventions such as minesweeper tanks) and, in addition, their swimming Sherman tanks had all sunk en route to the beach. The opposition, the 352nd Division, were some of the best trained on the beaches, and occupied positions on the steep cliffs overlooking the beach. The official record stated that "within 10 minutes of the ramps being lowered, [the leading] company had become inert, leaderless and almost incapable of action. Every officer and sergeant had been killed or wounded [...] It had become a struggle for survival and rescue". The division had over 4000 casualties. Despite this, the survivors regrouped and pressed inland.

The massive concrete cliff top gun emplacement at Pointe du Hoc was the target of the U.S. 2nd Ranger battalion. The task of the 225 men, led by Lt. Colonel James Earl Rudder, was to scale the 30 metre cliffs under enemy fire with ropes and ladders, and then attack and destroy the guns, which were thought to command the Omaha and Utah landing areas. The emplacement was successfully reached, and the guns which had been moved out (probably during the preceding bombardment) were found and destroyed. The casualty rate for the landing troops was nearly fifty percent.

Just so you know

Uh yes, I'm quite familiar with the actions of 6 Airborne on D-Day, they were the only Allied force to actually seize their objective within their original timetable. You forget the actions of the US 82nd and 101st Airborne divisions that did the exact same thing.
Note also that Montgomery was a twat and should have been sacked during the Normandy campaign after the landings.
