Well you really have to back almost 20 years before the war because at the beginning of the war Ford Chyrsler and Gm and even George Bush's Grandfather were either very good friends or admirers of Hitler in Fact Henry Ford had a signed picture of Hitler on his desk and Bush was part of a Bank that was funding him.At the start of the war over 30% of Trucks in the German Army were Fords.The punch cards used to process Jews for execution were produced in America.So how did America change the war? it helped create prolong and finish it in true Hollywood style

Not before they squeezed Britain of all its Gold reserves,and forced 3 major British companies and their technology/research based in the USA, to sell for a knockdown price to USA companies.
Two of the companies were Courtaulds and ICI. Courtaulds were developing nylon and other plastic type material, when forced to sell to Dupont a massive organisation, and a leader today in plastic technology and development.(google Dupont and bangaldesh) ICI were working on specialised explosives and the nuclear bomb.
Other concessions wrung out of Britain, who at the time were standing alone against germany,was to make the British Empire countries open for business to the USA after the war,previously denied them.
By the time the USA entered the war Britain had been fighting the Germans and Italians for 2 years.
The Americans indeed brought millions of men and supplies to the ww2.The also unfortunatley brought their arrogance.Thinking,as we are supplying the majority of men and supplies,we should be telling the Brits how to conduct the war.With no experience to support the claim they were soon shown what war is all about with their first taste of battle in north Africa in operastion torch,where they were steam rolled by the Afrika Corps.. Field Marshall Romell. Who was at the time being routed by the British 8th under General montgomery.After that incidedent their attitude changed a little.
