Yeah, you guys (Soviets) were just the main supplier of oil to Germany

What kind of time warp was this?

Operation Barbarossa kicked off on 22 June 1941.

The USA entered the war against Germany on 11 December 1941 (when
Germany declared war on the USA).


Yeah, I know. (It was late, and I was still dehydrated from a day out
in the sun...which we're still getting here, if not the 90+ temps the
midwest seems to be getting.)
