Big Military Experience

As we have been discussing the last couple weeks about how the Axis powers came to be, I noticed that each one has gained major battlefield experience that the Allies don't have in their time of peace. Germany fought in Germany testing out new tactics giving them the edge at the beginning of WWII with their Blitzkrieg attacks. Mussolini and Italy gained experience in North Africa, and finally the Japanese. They fought multiple wars in China and gained naval experience in the Pacific. All of these things put the Allies at a major disadvantage to start the war and it showed as the Allies were beaten early in the war.
