Britain hadn't lost many people at all. At most I have seen it as 1.2 million, including civilians. The economy of Britain was at it's end but the manpower was still there. On top of that, do not forget the manpower of Britain's vast empire. India alone provided over ten million combatants and "combat workers" during World War II.
The U.S lost just over half a million at most during World War II. This was nowhere near the Soviet loss of twenty-three million. The Soviet Union was at it's nearest end when it entered Berlin. They were struggling to produce fighting soldiers in 1943 and the losses just kept mounting throughout 1944-'45.
We would be talking the manpower of Canada, United States, Britain and India alone being able to deal with the Soviet Union. Then you have the other nations in the British Empire and also the other Allied nations. We must remember that France did not lose very many people during World War II - they would have plenty youthful fighting soldiers from France itself and her colonies. Then there's Poland and the Eastern European nations that would be more than willing to fight for the Western Alliance to crush the Soviet Union. All White Russians would join against the Stalinist regime as well.
