World War II
Onward! America reluctantly entered into World War II with a tremendous force that ensured our freedoms of today. From the beaches of Normandy into the Pacific, the war would change the American Way of Fighting (AWoF) forever, advancing our Naval amphibious warfare with real-time novel innovations and strategies. As Robert Ritchie notes[1], “America’s Navy has always been our first line of defense.” In the case of World War II, it was our tactical Navy that diligently strived to dismantle the German Army. It would be a fight to be remembered, and one that would preserve our sovereignty in the face of an imperialistic multinational dictatorship.
Between the Wars
For the U.S. military of the most important engagements of American culture was in peacetime which occurred between the first and second world wars. This included The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Camps, which were utilized to create a peacetime army in preparation for future wartime defense[2] (Ritchie, R. , 2021). From 1918 until 1939, America furthered its amphibious warfare technology beyond its Naval capabilities used in the first World War. One piece of technology which was perfected between the first and second World Wars was the use of wireless radio technology. During World War I, soldiers relied on telephones which left communication lines vulnerable to an attack. By severing the cable, all electronic communications would become compromised, a position that could be responsible for disaster. On July 18th, 1925 upon his failed revolution just two years earlier, Hitler began writing his pervasive playbook, which would take effect eleven years later[3] (AnneFrank).
1936 Olympics
The 1936 Olympic games took place in Germany, filling channels across the world with Nazi propaganda. Like the events that unfolded during the Winter 2022 Olympic Games athletes in 1936 began to boycott the Olympics, in advocation of human rights abuse[4],[5]. During the 2022 Olympic Games, citizens were forced into perpetual lockdown by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in preparation for the global event[6],[7],[8]. Hitler would be hailed by Time magazine just two years later, along with the New York Times[9]. This contributed to the inertia of the German Army, as Hitler plotted his silent attack against Poland in 1939. With that attack, the Second World War would begin, ultimately ending his rule and dissolving Fascist ideology forever.
North Africa to Europe
D-Day: The Invasion of Normandy
“We in America have learned bitter lessons from two world wars. It is better to be here ready to protect the peace than take blind shelter across the sea, rushing to respond only after freedom is lost. We’ve learned that isolationism never was and never will be an acceptable response to tyrannical governments with an expansionist intent. But we try always to be prepared for peace, prepared to deter aggression, prepared to negotiate the reduction of arms, and yes, prepared to reach out again in the spirit of reconciliation[10].” – Ronald Reagan’s Speech at Normandy, 1984
The brave American soldiers entered the beaches of Normandy, submitting their faith and their lives to God. Without hesitancy, U.S. troops invaded to secure the beaches of France, freeing citizens from Nazi rule, and Hitler’s 2000-mile-long Atlantic Wall along France[11] (MilitaryHistory).
Frogmen. Known today as Navy Seals, Frogmen were used to securing the beaches ahead of the Higgins Boats. The revolutionary use of Duplex Tanks were used to invade Normandy. These amphibious tanks were developed in between the Wars, and included an inflatable life preserver, giving them the name “Donald Duck” tanks. Despite their innovation to modern American warfare, out of the twenty-nine that were delivered to the shores of Normandy beach, only two successfully made it ashore[12] (DOD).
Radio. While Radio provided instantaneous communication that was previously unseen in warfare, it also was weaponized against the Germany Army and the "National Socialist German Worker's Party," or "Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei” Nazi regime under control of Adolf Hitler[13] (LBI). The use of Enigma allowed for the de-encrypted of German Naval codes in 1942, utilizing the technology against the enemy[14] (NSA). Overall, Radio Intelligence Operations proved to be a pivotal factor in American troops having the tactical upper-hand at the Invasion of Normandy. Further intelligence operations were enacted to divert the enemy including the creation of fictitious military basecamps, which included Inflatable Tanks, Cars, and Planes. American Army was able to distract and confuse the enemy to where we were planning to attack[15],[16] (LiveScience, Smithsonian).
Higgins Boats. Higgins Boats were also implemented during the invasion of Normandy, turning the tables on the Nazi Gestapo. Instead of climbing over the side of the boat, leaving troops vulnerable to an attack, Higgins Boats featured a ramp that allowed for troops and vehicles to rapidly exit the vessel and attack from strategic locations[17] (NationalWWIIMuseum). It was through American resilience that our troops were able to navigate the treacherous waters, avoiding gunfire, and making it to the shores to secure France from the tyrannical Nazi regime. According to Historians at the National World War II Museum, “[p]reviously, navies would have to attack ports, which were usually heavily defended. By using Higgins Boats, armies could unload across an open beach and have more options in choosing their attack points.”These boats showed such success that the manufacturer created 20,000 boats by the end of World War II. As Higgins had only 75 employees at the start of the war, by the end, the company had hired 20,000 employees, becoming the first racially integrated equal-pay workforce in New Orleans[18]. The American Army used Napalm, Close Air Support, and Carpet-Bombing using twin-engined B-26 Marauders, among other tactics to accomplish The Invasion of Normandy[19] (Airplanes-Online).
B-17 & B-24 Bombers. In 1943 the U.S. Army Air Force coordinated bombings using US B-17 and B-24 heavy bombers which attacked Germany’s “Schweinfurt ball bearing factories,” in an effort to weaken their manufacturing. The first raid was able to cut bearing production by 40%, however the Germans following with defensive retaliation. The German Army attacked American bombers using single-engine aircraft fighters, followed by a second wave of German JU-88 fighters. According to the World War II Museum[20], “Of the 1,122 high-explosive bombs dropped, 143 landed on the factory area with 88 direct hits. Despite the accuracy of the raid, however later analysis eventually determined that German ball bearing production dropped by a mere 10 percent.”
The War in the Pacific
Japan saw a massive disadvantage with a lack of planning against the American Navy. It was through the use of real-time strategic evolution conducted diligently by General Douglas MacArthur, which led to our victory against the Japanese Army. It was through building a major Naval port of anchorage at Eniewetok, which allowed the U.S. to gain an advantage. As stated by Historian Robert F. Ritchie[21], “The Japanese failed abysmally in the Pacific. Why a nation dedicated to achieving a naval empire would ignore ASW, or anti-submarine warfare, against a potential enemy is still confusing to many.”
According to the U.S. Military, General Patton had predicted the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor years prior,[22] “[i]n his 1937 report dated, June 3, he concluded Japan was willing and possibly able to attack Hawaii,” which would occur on December 7th, 1941 (Army). Despite the ferocity of the American military, the Japanese learned from the German mistakes made at Normandy, adjusting their strategies to attack the Allied Powers. As Historian Robert Ritchie describes, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese suffered from “victory disease” or “[t]he overconfidence accompanying success is like human pride.” New weapons used by American forces in the Pacific were Rocket Systems, the M1 Garand, the M4 Sherman, and Tactical Bombing. Additionally, the battle allowed for F6F Hellcats which were developed after capturing Japanese Aircraft called Zeros[23]. (Ritchie, R., 2021) Another bomber that provided strategic bombings across the Japanese Islands was the B-29 Bomber.
D+1: Iwo Jima
Iwo Jima was one of the most devastating battles of World War II, and our final military operation[24]. Lasting thirty-six days, strategically mapped out in secret, the battle would be fought on Island X[25](Seabee). The Japanese, descendants of Samurai, were indoctrinated at a young age to ensure they would be willing to die for the defense of their country. The Japanese poured propaganda into the public to ensure they would despise U.S. soldiers, in preparation for the relentless battle. Leading the American troops into Japan was General Holland McTyeire “Howlin’ Mad” Smith[26],[27].” As the ships shot at Mt. Suribachi, the Japanese troops moved, like ants, into an underground bunker. One innovation used at Iwo Jima were Marine Flame Tanks, called “Ronsons” were M4A3 Shermans equipped with the Navy Mark 1 flame-thrower[28] (NPS). In total, the Battle of Iwo Jima “cost US forces 6,871 lives and [left] 19,217 wounded[29](WW2Museum).”
D+2, L-Day: The Battle of Okinawa
Spring of 1945 would mark the last battle of World War II, at the Battle of Okinawa[30](NationalWW2Museum). Despite the technology brought by American forces, the Japanese implemented Kamikaze planes against U.S. ships. The Japanese Army found committed soldiers willing to die for their nation, believing they would be venerated as heroes upon death. As America continued fighting the Japanese Army, its military refused to surrender. President Truman warned Japan that we would advance on Japan, predicting a massive loss of U.S. troops. To avoid unnecessary American causalities with this, American forces unleashed a weapon of immense proportions, dropping the first Atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Though the Japanese government remained silent after the attack, they surrendered as America targeted Nagasaki, dropping a second plutonium warhead. The U.S. response would effectively end the war, as Japan surrendered.
V-E Day (Victory in Europe Day)
On April 1st, 1945 On May 8th, 1945 World War II in Europe finally reached its conclusion. Although World War II would last until the winter of 1945, V-E Day marked the extermination of Nazi forces, with Hitler soon eradicating himself off the planet shortly after.
Post World War II: New World Order
While today’s most powerful global institutions are thought to be formed as a direct result of World War II, the great I.F. Stone reminds us, “Internationalism made its appearance in American foreign policy with the administration of Woodrow Wilson (Stone, I.F., 1953-1971).”
¨ The United Nations - Officially formed on October 24th, 1945, global leaders quickly sought a way to overthrow future imperialist dictators, as occurred in World War II. The result, was the creation of the United Nations[31] (UN).
¨ The Marshall Plan - On April 3rd, 1948 the 33rd U.S. President Harry S. Truman signed the Economic Recovery Act[32] of 1948 (Archives). Under this act, America would begin pumping money into international economies in order to assist with the rebuilding of France after the war. So began our international philanthropy at the taxpayer’s expense.
¨ The World Health Organization - Just four days later, on April 7th, 1948 the notorious World Health Organization, another global entity was formed to facilitate the narrative on global health[33] (UN). By all nations combining efforts to research emerging pathogens of concern, we could stay one step ahead of the next disaster.
¨ The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) - On September 18th, 1947, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was formed[34]. Utilizing the intelligence techniques developed during WWII, the CIA was able to establish international surveillance across the world. That technology would later be used domestically to “secure” Americans, observing our every action with strict scrutiny. With the transhumanist integration of brain-chips and implantable biotechnology, it is only a matter of time before our thoughts will fall subject to regulation under the pretext of security[35] (Neuralink).
Mussolini’s Influence on World War II
It’s evident that Mussolini’s surprise attack on Greece and Jugoslavia on October 28th, 1940 inspired Operation Barbarossa and Operation Typhoon, Hitler’s surprise attacks on Russia on June 22, 1941 and eventually America on December 7th of that same year. Hitler idolized Mussolini, remaining inferior by his own account, despite his power incurred throughout the war. Mussolini viewed Hitler with disdain. As Historian Denis Mack Smith writes[36], “Yet he thought it wise to pretend to Hitler that he had no intention of attacking Greece or Jugoslavia, but was concentrating on an invasion of Egypt as the overall strategy of access required.” What Mussolini lacked in the ability to calculate his allied fascist forces, he made up for with skillful manipulation and deceit. However, it would be his miscalculations of allied support that would ultimate lead to his demise on April 28th, 1945, at aged sixty-one. Greatly shaken by the murder of his political inspiration, Hitler would take his own like just two days later on April 30th, 1945.
Despite Hitler’s reported intellect, his luciferous actions revealed his inability to consider an authority above his own, ultimately leading to his demise. Advancing on Moscow during the Winter, many Nazis succumbed to the harsh conditions. Hitler believed the war would be short, refusing to send winter coats with his soldiers. This proved to be a massive advantage for the Allied forces.
Moscow
During this time the U.S. Manhattan Project worked simultaneously against the U.S.S.R.’s Soviet Atomic Program, successfully detonating Joe-1, (RDS-1, First Lightening),[37],[38] (NPS, AHF). America would succeed in the end, achieving a nuclear warhead naming it “The Atomic Bomb[39]” Truman would then give the order to drop the Bomb. As described by the National Park Service[40] (NPS), “August 6, 1945, the American B-29 bomber, the Enola Gay, dropped the world’s first atom bomb over the city of Hiroshima.”
Nefarious Intent
The bottom line, World War II could not have happened without Hitler’s rise to power. This was a task he was incapable of accomplishing alone. It was the American bureaucracy which utilized WWII as a platform to hoist their authority over the U.S. economy. Every corporation wanted a chance to get in on the financial opportunity. Coca-Cola banned their product from the country[41], only to create a special brand name (using the exact ingredients) explicitly for Hitler, called “Fanta,” after the word “Fantasie” in German[42] (Business Insider). The Hitlerian assistance didn’t stop there. IBM were the primary facilitators to Adolf Hitler, creating the physical counting machines which were used to count the Jewish prisoners located in the concentration camps. This is how the Jewish prisoners were able to be cataloged and receive “numbers.” Without those machines, Hitler’s concentration camps would not have been possible. As shown by Historian Edwin Black, in his book, “IBM and The Holocaust” IBM’s CEO Thomas Watson met with Adolf Hitler to discuss how America could contribute to imprisonment and extermination of the Jewish population, in exchange for revenue[43]. After Watson’s reign, the company was passed to Bill Gates Sr., who utilized the blood money gained from the persecution and mass execution of Jewish prisoners of war to pave the way for Microsoft. In 2014, spokeswoman As IBM Spokeswoman Carol Malkovich stated[44], “hundreds of U.S. companies”, including IBM “had started losing control of its business in Germany beginning with Hitler’s rise to power in 1933.” Though it was American companies that provided Hitler the greatest international advantage.
Hitler’s Death, Revisited
The official story states that Hitler died by suicide, alongside his wife. Mussolini died very much in the same way, his wife refusing to leave his side. While Hitler attempted to mimic the circumstances by which Mussolini died, he utilized cyanide capsules to assist with his own death. After witnessing his wife’s death from the poison, he decided to readjust his cause of death, shooting himself in the head before the cyanide could take effect. Recent evidence however has caused controversy over the exact details of Hitler’s death[45] (History).
Captain Peter F. Caron, U.S. Army Air Forces, World War II
One of the most personally influential figures, Captain Peter F. Caron of the U.S. Army Air Forces, Army Serial Number 31122380. Born in 1905, Peter Caron, previously a Stenographer, enlisted as a private on May 18th, 1942, “for the duration of the War or other emergency, plus six months, subject to the discretion of the President of otherwise according to law.” Captain Caron remained sharp-witted throughout his final days, whose impact has since held lifelong influence over his great-nephew, the author of this report[46]. After World War II, Captain Caron became a covert intelligence operative abroad for two decades before finishing his career at the Pentagon. He kept his entire career secret until his final days, never marrying or having a family. Captain Peter F. Caron, a follower of Jesus Christ, gave everything he had, dedicating, and committing his life to uphold the sovereignty of this incredible nation[47]. Captain Peter F. Caron was also a member of the American Legion.
Unit 731
While History often focuses on Hitler as the primary facilitator of human rights violations and mass depopulation, Japan also played a large role in the persecution of human life. Unit 731 committed some of the most deprave atrocities ever witnessed in human history, the Japanese used vivisection, pathogenic infections, organ removal, limb amputation, burning of living flesh, crushing of the body with heavy objects, animal blood transfusions, continuous X-Ray exposure, rapes, forced pregnancies, and other inconceivable mutilations[48]. America was quick to forgive Japan for its unspeakable acts, pardoning Unit 731 from facing any punishments in exchange for peace[49].
Soviet Union
During the war, Stepan Bandera rose to power, dividing the region of Ukraine into two. Bandera planned on liberating Ukrainians from Stalin, siding with Germany in the war. During the Nuremberg Trials, the Nazi collaborators were pardoned by America, similar to the response give to Japan’s Unit 731. As a result Nazi factions were formed and have since remained, still existing as a part of Ukraine’s national government today. On October 15th, 1959 Stepan Bandera would be assassinated by the KGB using a specially crafted poison gun, inspiring Ian Fleming’s “The Man With the Golden Gun[50]” (Harvard).”
A Faithful God
We are reminded in 1 Samuel 12:22 (NIV) “For the sake of his great name the LORD will not reject his people, because the LORD was pleased to make you his own.” It is evident our American Troops, like the revolutionaries with the founding of our nation, were also Divinely protected as they entered into battle. However, maleficent entities like Hitler and his followers chose to venerate themselves as gods of war. What the Nazi regime failed to recognize was the warning God gave us in 1 Samuel 12:24,25 (NIV) “But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you. Yet if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will perish.” Perhaps one of the biggest failures the Nazi regime was their disbelief in the absolute truth of Scripture. Throughout History, it is clear that God is a faithful provider who always keeps His word. Since its founding, the Supernatural power of God has been a well-known defense that has contributed to our American exceptionalism.
Conclusion
As revealed by Historian Robert Ritchie, “Rapidly maneuvering, aggression, and a preponderance of firepower combined with effective knowledge of the enemy’s position through the use of indigenous people or scouts characterize how Americans tend to achieve success on the battlefield,” has led us to become to the free nation that we exist in today. It was through our American-style warfare we were able to break chains and emancipate those being persecuted under the authority of a Hitlerian regime. While Hitler and Mussolini have long been eradicated off the face of the earth, their eugenic ideology remains in various forms around the world. Despite the losses incurred by American Troops and Allied powers, it was our resilience and Supernatural backing that allowed us to persevere. Those who fought in WWII are largely responsible for the freedoms and national sovereignty that we enjoy today. Total exposure of information is the only way to prevent nefarious actors from using the same failed strategies under different circumstances. It is by God’s grace that our nation will be able to prevent future World Wars, and that we can utilize the knowledge gained from global conflict, using it instead to negotiate peaceful resolutions.
