Vital role was played by Soviet Union, but the USA just helped (in a bigger way for money (land-lease)...) As I mentioned above, about 70% of Nazi army was destroyed by Soviet Forces.
However we were talking about Berlin. This is why I asked to show the numbers. Forget about the US loses in battles against Japan (that's a different story), try to count
how many forces the States had in Europe and
how many German forces were defending Berlin. Now you should understand why I was laughing on the guy who said that Russians took Berlin just because the USA allowed it. That's really funny, isn't it?
