First of all, let me say, I agree it would make wargaming, but I have to
say 
it's fun to banter about as well.

I agree.  I also aknowledge the political and cultural differences
between 
1910's USA and 1930's-40's USR, but there are some parallels: Vast
amounts 
of land to cover, drawn-out supply lines, hostile natives, and terrain 
friendly and familiar to the defenders.
