Enviromental impact of Drumbeat

In war environmentalism goes out the window. Just idmagine how many species went extinct on the various hard fought pacific islands for one. However it was a completely different time back then. And I am pretty damn sure Hitler would have not given a damn killing a national park to build a factory to build tanks.

Most of the oil sunk was well out at sea while of course it still sucked. it would have quite a great deal of dilution before getting anywhere near shore.

Todays tankers are huge beyond belief. Many are bigger than WW2 aircraft carriers. If say north korea would have torpedoed one of those instead it would have been an ecological disaster the likes of Validez
