The article discuss the oil balance of NAZI Germany in 37 - june 44.
The funny side is that some 50% of oil and petrolium products
were supplied by US based companies (the standard oil of New Jersey,
the standard oil of California and the Davis oil company) mainly via
Spain. This includes 100% of oil supply for NAZI subs operating in
Atlantic. All these operations were authorised by US government.

Care to mention, who the other big supplier of oil to Germany until 1941
was?

Pathetic attempt at diversion from a lamer. The USSR was a big supplier
of grain to Germany before 1941. It simply does not compare in the sort
of industrial and oil assistance offered the Nazis by eager western
companies (mainly American ones such as Ford and GM).

Yeah, you guys (Soviets) were just the main supplier of oil to Germany
from the time the U.S. entered the war until Barbarossa.

Err, wasn't Barbarossa (June 22 1941) *before* the entry of the US
(December 7 1941)?

Dang...of course you're right.

....from the beginning of the war in late '39 until Barbarossa. U.S. had
quit most fuel exports to Germany when the war began in Europe.

It was my pleasure to personally destroy tons of Gemrnan fues supplies in
repeated raids against tank farms. Go to my website and click on "WURZBURG" for
a photograph taken at the moment we hit a fuel farm and the resulting
fireball on the ground. It felt good.

Still have the original negs around somewhere. Hits on tank farms were always
spectacular. You never have to wonder about the results of the mission.

What kind of time warp was this?

Operation Barbarossa kicked off on 22 June 1941.

The USA entered the war against Germany on 11 December 1941 (when
Germany declared war on the USA).

Yeah, I know. (It was late, and I was still dehydrated from a day out
in the sun...which we're still getting here, if not the 90+ temps the
midwest seems to be getting.)

His dates were wrong, but the facts are correct. The USSR was the
single largest supplier of oil to Nazi Germany up until the day the
Germans invaded the Soviet Union. Trains were still rolling into
Germany from the USSR loaded with oil and other strategic materials as
the Germans crossed into Soviet Territory. As a matter of interest, I
believe Sweden was the next largest supplier. Sweden bought oil from
foreign sources and resold it to the Germans.
