US Navy completely withdrew from the Atlantic after Pearl Harbour.
It is comments like this that shows the forum how much of an idiot you are.
Ok Heerooooo.... where did the USN go after they withdrew from the Atlantic?

Okay, fukchead, show me a US Navy escorted Atlantic convoy. There weren't any because the US Navy wasn't there.
In fact, it's actually you Yanks who believe you won WWII all by yourselves, despite turning up late as usual.
We beat the Germans and have the best armed forces on Earth. You lost against the Vietnamese, because your military is second rate.
lmao... such a tard...
Here you go....
Battle of the Atlantic

Destroyer Escorts of World War II
That the Battle of the Atlantic was decisively won was due in no small measure to the arrival of specialized “destroyer escorts” (DEs) and the “hunter-killer” task forces they formed with small aircraft carriers which, in the last two years of the war, nearly eliminated the U-boat threat.
Enough for you Heeerrrooooo?

Just in case you don't remember, Dunkirk was a military disaster that left Britain almost devoid of military equipment. In fact the only fully equipped military division in Britain after Dunkirk was the newly arrived Canadian division which had arrived too late to take part in the military fiasco that led to Dunkirk. The only thing that probably saved Britain was the Royal Navy, which prevented Hitler from making an immediate cross-Channel invasion.
In actual fact, the arguments for Britain leaving the EU hold far more water than the arguments for Scotland leaving the UK. Britain would thrive and be far better off outside the EU whereas Scotland would never survive without being propped up by English taxpayers.Interestingly the arguments put forth for Britain moving out of the EU are almost identical to those put forth by the Scottish nationalists as reasons for seceding from Britain and those of Quebec separatists for seceding from Canada. None of them stand up to any scrutiny.
US "destroyer escorts" were used by neither the RN (except for two dozen of them with diesel-electric drive that were so poorly designed that they were hardly used) or the RCN who did give the Yanks a dozen Canadian made Corvette's and two Frigates from Vickers in Montreal that the Yanks knocked off and copied into a class of destroyer escorts.
The only American warships of value that were used on the convoys were some little escort carriers that were eventually replaced by far better British light carriers.

Such a Yank...too fukcing stupid to make a complete word.

Just curious Blackleaf, when this "inevitable" alleged departure from the EU takes place will you be throwing out the tens of thousands of workers currently working in the UK?
Is there some law which states that foreigners are not allowed to work in a non-EU country?
They are presently working in the UK because of the law that provides freedom of movement within the EU. So you want the benefits only that EU provides and none of the responsibility, eh? I'm not surprised, it's been a staple of the British Empire for centuries.
The E provides very few benefits to Britain. Even the Remainers can't name any.
Yeah? Tens of thousands of workforce that limeys can't provide because you're too busy being drunks in the pubs.

No. The thing which stopped Hitler invading Britain was Britain's victory in the Battle of Britain, which happened when Britain fought ALONE against Germany.
It sure is. Rather famously so. Everyone else had either been taken over, surrendered and collaborated (the Frogs) or sat on the sidelines twiddling their thumbs waiting for the Japs to attack (the Yanks).
Why should we come and fight, just because you proclaimed war with Germany? F*ck you, fight your own wars.
