During World War II the American Army became highly mechanized, more so than any armed force in history. Even the vaunted German Army, with their celebrated tactics of Blitzkrieg, never achieved the scope and degree of mechanization as the U.S. forces. The U.S. also supplied large numbers of vehicles to Allies. In many ways it was Detroit, representing the vast production capacity of the American economy, that enabled the Allies to win World War II.
