古德明《征服英语》之英语军事故事,古德明,香港英语教育作家,他开了一个《征服英语专栏》,在专栏中专门用英语写了世界近代史上的军事小故事,用英语讲述历史中那些惊心动魄的战争。美国的战力

by launching a surprise attack on pearl harbour on 7 december 1941, japan prompted the united states to enter world warⅡ. one of the reasons the japanese struck first was the belief that the americans could not sustain a prolonged wartime effort.

the japanese hardly realised the jaw-dropping extent of the enormous capacity and efficiency of the united states' war production, which can be summed up in one line: the ford motor company alone could produce more military equipment than italy.

special mention should also go to henry ford's great project, known as"willow run". he offered to build the united states government a factory that could produce one four-engine heavy bomber every hour. almost everyone thought it was impossible, and they were correct. william run did not average one bomber every 60 minutes. it averaged one bomber every 63 minutes.
