I can understand, why for plot purposes they are doing things like having the Nazi's having invaded the US, but without some sort of half way plausible explanation of how it was accomplished it. That just trips too many BS alarms. I mean it took the US a good year plus, just to assemble the forces necessary for the normandy invasion and the US vastly out stripped Germany in terms of both population and production and Germany had it's best stuff tied down on the eastern front. Not to mention that we had a toe hold in England that was just 26 odd miles from the invasion point and it was still quite touch and go. Hell even in Russia, the Germans at least had rail links going up to the russian border. The thought of trying to sustain an invasion force across the north atlantic with no forward base would give any military nightmares.</blockquote>
