Blog mi3ch: "Second"

"And despite the rapid defeat of France, the British were not afraid of a war with Hitler almost alone. "We will go to the end, we will fight in France, we will fight on the seas and oceans, we will fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, We will defend our island, no matter the cost, we will fight on the beaches, we will fight on the landing sites, we will fight in the fields, in the streets, we will fight on the hills, we will never surrender."

And in the Battle of Britain alone (July 9 - October 30, 1940), the British destroyed more than 1,700 German aircraft. And in the Battle of the Atlantic, which consumed colossal resources of the Reich, the Allies sank more than 700 German submarines. The submarine fleet was the elite of Germany - nothing was spared for it."
