Churchill did say that the USSR "tore the guts out of the Nazi war machine".
The USSR lost ~25-30,000,000 in WW2 [the USA lost ~140k in Europe]. Without
the USSR, D-Day would never have happened in '44 as Germany would have had its
best divisions on the Atlantic Wall [rather than kids & old men alongside
Czech & Polish conscripts]. With no D-Day in '44, Berlin would have been
subjected to a nuclear attack in '45.
