  1. It's Dunkirk from the GERMAN perspective.

  2. The Germans lost 1.500 aircrafts during the whole campaign of France which prevented from prevailing in the Battle of England. The Germans have always had to fight on two fronts, that's why we can say that war was lost for them from the beginning on.

  3. Even the French kept their empire. The Germans did not have the means to seize it.

  5. The whole action of the British army during WWII : running away from Germans under the cover of the French. Dunkirk 1940, Bir Hakeim 1942, Alsace 1944... Not much to be proud of.

  6. Because of USSR's propaganda right after WWII. Stalin needed to make forget that 1) the nazis had always claimed they were socialists just like the bolsheviks ; 2) USSR and Germany had been in good terms since 1937 and allied from 1939 to 1941 ; 3) WWII was just a civil war within the great socialist family with on one hand the socialists pretending to be nationalists and on the other hand socialists pretending to be internationalists. It worked because of communists' discipline with all communist parties taking their orders in Moscow. Furthermore in 1944 - 1945, communist parties took advantage of the purges that followed the Liberation to eradicate right wing resistance - especially in France - and they imposed their point of view.

  7.  @iroscoe  As for the invasion of Norway, the Germans had so few ships that they needed to borrow them from their Soviet allies.
