Is this why the called them selves the forgotten army?

They certainly got all the second quality kit. The Grant tank was replaced by the Sherman in the Western Desert and Europe and shipped to Burma. The Hurricane went out there too and after the war it took a long time to get the troops and POWs home.

To be fair, the Japanese tanks weren't up to much and the Hurricane was a match for the Zero

And a match for the japanese Oscar fighter as well. Lets not forget that the Russians declared war on the japanese on the 8 of august, invading manchuria, and helping to bring the war to an end. It wasn't just about the atomic bombs, those  russians wanted revenge for the 1905-07 war.
