So let's see...the British along with Commonwealth and Free Allied Forces using American manufactured and provided weapons defeated the Germans and Italians at the Second Battle of El Alamein after the US was formally involved in the war. Your nitpicking did nothing to reinforce your point, Rotter old boy
