Excellent points, well made. Also, I'm surprised no one's mentioned(unless I missed it)Eisenhower yet.
Not a good general. Put against an opponent that if superior, I don't think Ike could win. On the Allied side, Patton, and what's his face in the Burmese front were the only generals who could win, if the odds were not in their favor.
Now Ike knew how to get jerks like Monty and Patton to work well together. He was awesome at that. Brilliant beyond my explanation really.
