This poppycock. Supplying some arms - the US also used Canberra bombers made by Martin in the US - and giving some advice and intelligence is not committing British forces. British troops were not on the ground, in the air or the seas around fighting.

Wilson kept us out. Many reading this would have been crawling through those jungles only for Wilson. And few would not have been reading this either.
