It's ASB for several reasons: US and UK politics and logisitical reasons in sending and keeping enough boots on the ground to make much of a difference on the eastern front, Stalin's paranoia, etc.
My question is, IF the WAllies, especially the US and UK/Indian/ANZACs
could put boots on the ground in large numbers in Archangel or more plausibly through Iran to assist the Soviets in booting out the Nazis, what butterflies would be unleashed if that happened from 1942-1945?
The Soviets, understandably, felt like the US was nice in sending lots of food, fuel, locomotives and trucks, but let them take all the casualties in forcing the Germans back west. If Americans, British and others died right in front of them helping to liberate their country, would the Cold War have resulted in the same way as OTL?
