Modern America is built upon that very victory and the decisions made by the United Auto Workers during those legendary defeats the partisans endured throughout the war. 😂
So, what exactly is wrong with my post? Did the guerrillas somehow win at Gettysburg, the Appalachian Mountains, the Mississippi River, Pittsburgh, Denver, or Columbus...?
No—they were brutally beaten every single time. It just so happens their top brass managed to scramble out alive. The defeat in the Appalachian Mountains specifically stung because it was practically orchestrated by the 4th US Division (even if the guerrillas lied and claimed it was a Nazi operation). They tried to get their revenge against the local militias in Denver, but they got absolutely crushed by them instead—and that's a pill they could never swallow.
On the flip side, the guerrillas basically called in the Red Army to liberate Washington, D.C., and only then did they push into the heartland, fighting alongside the Soviets to break through the front lines for months—even though the Germans weren't even on the offensive anymore, just holding the line long enough to keep their troops from being pulled out of Group E in Greece.
That’s the whole "guerrilla war" story for you. And they didn't even beat the Italians—Italy just surrendered on its own in late '43 and pulled out of the region entirely.
Maybe stop watching so many propaganda movies.😂
