I was told the Nazi's could have easily taken England, no sweat.

In the same way that the Japanese could have conquered the US in five
days in 1941 if they'd only bothered to try? (Land in California,
commandeer weapons and transport from the cowardly fleeing populace,
race the bad news to Washington, impose Imperial hegemony, declare
victory while forcibly recruiting all white females between seven and
seventy for "recreational services"?)

I think whoever was telling you this, was pulling your leg so hard it's
still out of its socket, and they're still telling the story of "some
clueless guy called Tucker" who didn't just swallow the hook but took
the line, and the sinker, and tried to eat the rod as well.

Remember the Southern Pacific and Union Pacific ran 40 hour trains
from San Francisco and Los Angeles to Chicago, seven days a week. If
you could get past all the GIs riding those buggers even in 1941-2 you
had to have enough real U.S.A. green to pay for your meals.
