Question

Which Allied country’s forces arrived in Berlin first?

1. The United States
2. Britain
3. France
4. The USSR

Answer 1

2. Britain.
Both France and Britain declared war on Germany on the same day (3rd September 1939) however, Britain said Germany must respond agreeing to withdraw troops from Poland before 11AM else they would be at war. France gave a deadline of 5PM. Neither demands were met, so Britain declared war on Germany 6 hours before France.
