[QUOTE="derklug, post: 16937932, member: 138123"] The one thing that I can never get through my head is why the Germans didn't sue for peace when they knew it was over. After the Bulge they knew it was over but refused to go against Hitler and stop it. I wonder if the memories of WW1 and the post war era had a lot to do with not wanting to surrender. Or Hitler's magic still held them in thrall and the top men knew their necks would get stretched when this was all done. The same could be said of Japan, but I think they thought that they could kill enough Americans in an invasion of the home islands that we would allow them a conditional surrender. [/QUOTE]
