British and Commonwealth (or other allies) ratios
Lately when reading material on various subjects of WW2 I'm caught by a feeling that I hope isn't misunderstood, but which I'd love to see either refuted or substantiated. The focus is ground forces btw.
How were the force ratios of British, their Commonwealth and other allies (ex. USA and USSR) in their main battles? I cannot escape from the feeling that in many a battle the bulk of the forces was not of UK origin, but from an ally. France in 1940 South Africa, India, Australia and New Zeeland in the Med/Africa and Middle East Australia, India and New Zeeland etc in Asia Canadians in 1943/1944. How did the actual ratios stand, are there ready sources on the subject? If it is proven to be true (a noncommital of forces), could that be explained by WW1 trauma?
