Re: Placing the Bell P39 Aircobra.
Must have made a mess of the approaches to the bridges.
The Ludendorff Bridge at Remagen—the last standing span over the Rhine—was captured by American soldiers of the U.S. 9th Armored Division 7 March, during Operation Lumberjack.
So not all were blown up by the Germans. The Germans tried to destroy this bridge with Me262s and Ar234s and failed dispite less AAA than what the Germans had in place. You would be whining about the terrible losses of the 2TAF.
The Soviets would have got to Berlin first, no matter what, as they were 10 times closer to Berlin than the Western Allies.
