pego 2952, Patton wasn’t even alive. He died shortly after WWII in a car accident. How about we recommend someone who was genuinely still breathing during that time?

He was fired because he forgot that as a soldier you follow orders ,no matter what your rank. All generals as soon as they get a star on their shoulders become political . General Milly included.

CripplingHealer931, He also wanted to nuke China like 30 times for a military advantage. Would have won the Korean war, but been way worse in the long run.

Player #8330678, He was arrogant and would not listen to the leaders under his command.. More US soldiers were killed than there should have been because MacAuthur refused to believe that hundreds of Chinese soldiers had joined the conflict.
