My paternal grandfather served in the Royal Marines in Europe, and he heard tales of battles in the Pacific Theater that curled his hair. In his opinion, the Pacific was by far the worst of the two, and I didn't argue the point with him. He lived it.
the germans had better technology but as warrior ferocity goes few have topped the killer japs.
my apologies to modern day Japanese...the japs refers to the warriors only, who were indeed heartless killers and diserve discredit for the suffering they inflicted.
Just compare the death and casualty rates. Much higher percentage of dead and wounded, on both sides, in the Pacific Theater.
Still, you'd have to consider the fight between the Germans and the Russians. Brutal stuff. So, I'd rate that conflict a close second, or maybe even first.
there is no doubt that the nazis where a much better fighting force than the japs.
thats why the allies concentrated most of their manpower to europe.
the japs may have done terrible things to captured soldiers but what did the germans do.gas chambers ring a bell.
