You boys had 150 ships at Jutland and the Germans only 100 yet they mopped the floor with you when it came down to the actual fighting. :P
Lets not forget when the IJN jumped the
Prince of Wales and
Repulse. Or when they ran wild in the Indian Ocean sinking everything British including one of your carriers while its pilots were all busy having tea time or something. The Kido Butai comes for you and you run the Kido Butai comes for the US
and we fight (and win!)

The United States of America accepts no responsibility for the failures of the French Government. The point still stands; you were defeated by the French much to your eternal humiliation. :P
