Hi Rick,
Good to hear from you. I think we're at cross purposes here. My
sole concern re US losses in WW2 was to underline one point: total American
dead in the Pacific campaign under General MacArthur as supreme commander
were many times fewer than in the European theatre under Eisenhower.
Regards,
Bob.
