That's three extra divisions for the Germans to chuck at the Soviets. While not enough to win the war for the Germans, its going to cause the Soviets at lot more pain.
IIRC the British had to pull troops out of the RAF Regiment for replacements in late 44 in OTL. If their SF formations are getting the best the remaining formations are really going to suffer and I wouldn't be surprised that if by the third year of the war the British Army is up the creek.
That explains why the British will be rationing for so long that they have to keep rationing till the start of WWIII. Christ those terms are brutal.
Well at least some of the French when to the new world. Why to I get the bad feeling given how this TL has gone that whatever happens at...
So fighting in the Caucasus is looking likely. Christ this is going to be a blood bath. The Balkans are always a bloodbath. Why do I think Suez will fall this go around?
From my reading Grand Central is an ITL operation of some kind. Till we learn this was a British op I was leaning to the scale of the cluster fuck hinted at this would be Mac's insane idea to take Rabual back from the Japanese instead of performing the invasion of Guadalcanal.
MACs are the order of the day I see and earlier than OTL give the part of the war we are in. But then again a bi-plane fighter if fast enough should be enough to deal with a Fw-200
