Yes, Eisenhower was quite skilled in politics, something Patton was not skilled in. Guess which one would give you the straight poop? Actually, Patton would. http://www.victorhanson.com/articles/hanson102304.html (Military historian Victor Hanson) "Patton was not merely a great tactician, as Eisenhower seemed to think in deprecating his larger advice about the nature and purpose of the war. Indeed, he understood far more about strategy and global politics than did either Eisenhower or Bradley." |

"I thought it was a big bird!" - Dick Cheney.
Maybe I missed something, but I wasn't aware that Dick Cheney was involved in WW II. Are you lost or do you know something the rest of us don't? -Robert |
