Zhukov led Russia in it’s biggest battle…. Amazing tactics and strategies despite serious handicaps… Zhukov definitely…

I don’t know…Zhukov is good, but he gets all the credit as far as Russian generals. My vote goes to Rokossovsky, who besides having commanded at Kursk, Stalingrad, and Moscow, stood up to Stalin, survived the purges of the 30s, and if memory serves, had false teeth made from steel.

[Janus1]

well, my vote is for him, solely based on the steel teeth. the original Jaws, people, come on!

But seriously, my vote would go with Patton.

everyone had there different abilities that were amazing so my 2nd would be Rommel… his uncanny ability to find out his opponents strats was amazing…

I can’t argue with you via this topic, because I don’t see how you can compare army vs. navy commanders effectively, however I do agree with you, as far as naval commanders Nimitz was one of, if not the best.

[Guerrilla Guy]

Usually Land commanders make bigger “wins” as far as proportions, which is unfair to the navy but heck! :wink:

[Janus1]

cant really argue navy, because i do not understand the logistics of it really at all, let alone the tactics and strategy. however, i think the navy should be shot (you heard me). sadly, it is such a necessary branch, we will never get rid of it, but i do so truly wish we could, the army is so much better (on many levels), not to mention the marines.

[Guerrilla Guy]

I agree the navy will always be necessary(how else did we get to Iraq)? I’m only saying in proportions more losses are taking on the ground then at sea…

[Janus1]

absolutely, i was agreeing with you, and adding that i dislike the navy, in case that was unclear

[Guerrilla Guy]

why? The navy is how you either invade or stop an invasion…

army? marines? ha! try SEAL’s 8) .
oh, and by the way, i ship out for Navy Basic Training in June.

[Janus1]

Not if your Germany. And the SEALS are a special forces unit, all branches (except maybe the coast guard) have them. the SEALS are the shit, but they are a small part of the navy.

Yeah, I figured that much, but what are the “untouchables”?

[Guerrilla Guy]

Dirty missions, forward assualts, blowing stores, hostafe rescue….
