Patton actually planned on re-arming the Germans and using them to bolster a push against the Soviets, had the Americans taken Berlin first.
At this point, the Soviet would never get the bomb in time and would easily be overrun from both sides (after Japan's surrender).
There's just no cold war in this scenario. Not that the U.S.S.R is conquered but certainly pushed to the Russian border (past Ukraine, the Baltic states, etc).
This was more than possible and with nuclear arms the timeline could have been October of 1945 really.

What is crime if the end result affects only the individual who commits it?
