I would agree, when we get our new naval tech in the field especially.
What naval tech? We got about a half-dozen active ships in the entire Royal Navy . --------------------------------------------------------------------

And yet still most of these WWII games make America out to be the only country involved in the war.
I have seen many documentaries and all the Allies deserve thier fair share, the British RAF was a major factor that hardly gets a mention, unless its the battle of britian which quite frankly the US wont be bothered about.
Yeah, that has always ****ed me off. The game that came closest to recognising the achievements of the RAF was Secret Weapons over Normandy...but even then the main character was some American volunteer who managed to save all the British pilots.
Quite frankly, if it wasn't for the RAF biting back the Luftwaffe from Great Britian, the Allies would have had no place to organize an invasion from. Fortress Britian was central to winning the war, and when one reads just how close the Commonwealth was to losing Britian, well, it makes the notion that the US won WW2 for the allies all that more insulting.
I can pretty much picture what the Germans were thinking when the US arrived on the scene, "ScheiŻe, we have to kill these guys now too. Fritz, bring up ze anderer machinegun."
You dont expect an American games developer to glorify anyone other than American military do you? 
As we all know, the war was won a few hours after the Americans joined the fight (I've not played one, but that's how long these WW2 games usually take, right?). They're just THAT uber. All us British did was fall back at 5 o clock every day, and say "Jolly good show, chaps. We sure showed those Jerry's what's what, eh? Time for tea. Jenkins, did you bring the biscuits?" --------------------------------------------------------------------
