Erm... May be I'm misreading something here, but....
I would be interested in seeing your logistical planning by the USN for supplying its blockading forces some several thousand miles from its home bases.Roddoss wrote: In turn the US begins to place their own blockade on Britian, this is helped by the addtition of the German navy and the Germans and American begin to work in co-operation with each other.

As with everything the concept of a naval blockade by USN and Imperial German Navy is not set in stone, it was just a thought, it may have highly improbable, but not impossible to do, there is another way about this and that the USN is used to provide heavy escort of armed convoys to Germany, although not directly doing so USA does not declare war on Britain per se, but acts as a neutral belligerant, and any attempt to interdict the convoys would be repulsed with deadly force, with a direction from President Woodrow Wilson that the USN is not to shoot first but if fired upon, she is to respond with deadly force.
