More stuff from the story I'm putting together about the Germans failing to nuke DC.
A soldier of the French State outside Dakar watching for allied ships, early 1947. The puppet government in France still had much leeway in runnings its African empire, though it was expected that they would administrate in a way that benefitted the Germans. The enslavement of natives for agriculture and construction of defenses backfired on the occupiers when rebels supported attacking allied forces.
A Panzer III cut off from its unit in contested Belgium, 1947. After Britain was freed, the strengthening Western allies intensified their assaults on occupied mainland Europe. German and collaborator units were 'softened up' by bombing raids and attacks by early ballistic missiles before being attacked by ground forces.
American F4-Corsairs strafing Japanese positions near Jakarta. 1947. The US Navy, supported by Australia and New Zealand, began rolling back Japanese conquests in 1946 and gradually starved Japan of resources. The loss of Indonesia was a crippling loss as it supplied nearly half of Japan's oil.
