They sold that stuff to the Brits (the £27bn in today's money was only finally paid off in 2006).

If memory serves, the US were also supplying the Nazis at the start of the war.

I agree that US involvement was vital to winning WW2, but the idea that they won it themselves is pure American propaganda.
