Allied and Axis…we talk about them here...live… Top Military Personal Allied and Axis…we talk about them here...live…

Quick Knowledge * WWII is broken into theatres – Atlantic and Pacific (sometimes European and Pacific are used) * Theatre-Greek origins meaning “boundaries” or stage Allied Powers – USA, Britain, Soviet Union, France Axis Powers – Germany, Italy, and Japan

United States of America Dwight Eisenhower “Ike” Atlantic (European) Theatre Supreme Commander of Allied Forces Planned the Normandy Invasion

Britain Bernard Montgomery North African Theatre Jealous for not being selected Supreme Commander (Ike) Defeated Erwin Rommel (Germany’s top tank commander/ field marshal) Was given green light to enter Germany first due to political reasons

United States of America General Douglas MacArthur (General of the Army) Pacific Theatre WWI Veteran, Bonus Army fiasco Recalled to Army before outbreak of war Escape from Philippine Islands and said, “I shall return” EGO. Responsible for the life of Japan post Atomic bomb Oversaw surrender of Japan to US aboard USS MISSOURI

Nazi Germany Edwin Rommel “The Desert Fox” North Africa One of Hitler’s most prized generals Foreknowledge of assassination attempt on Hitler’s life…and said nothing…..Forced suicide Defeated by Monty BUT it was Patton that scared Rommel

United States of America George Patton Northern Africa European Theatre MY FAVORITE “May God have mercy on their souls, because I won’t.” “Accept the challenges so that you can feel the exhilaration of victory” “No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor bastard die for his” “I don’t measure a man’s success by how high he climbs but how high he bounces when he hits bottom”
