Zhukov was a bad general he wasn't able to stop the germans on the first months of the war until battle of moscow in which he had twice the casualties than the germans had on the battle, the only reason why he winned was because the germans didn't had the logistics and the capability to be on such overextended front
@@cesarpro2363 "Zhukov was a bad general he wasn't able to stop the germans on the first months of the war until battle of moscow" totally not because of unprepared troops and practically awful troops and weapons. and also all good generals got killed in the great purge, blaming stalin's idiocy and unpreparedness on his top general is the most slimy act you can do honestly. it's like blaming rommel for stalingrad lmao.
@Nayer Yayer Yeah but its alot better than them sitting on their bums and doing nothing but order drones and "accidently" killing kids and saying "total victory we got the terrorist".
That is not a bad thing. It is bad when a General who never fought a war, or didn't even shot at an enemy once, has his chest full of medals. Although, the greatests military leaders were the ones who went to the battlefield with the army.
one of the greatest men ever. freed all the slaves he owned when the war started. loyal to virginia first, usa second. hes an anti hero figure just like rommel. love em both.

It's true that we didn't participate as much as the United States or the United Kingdom, but we had good generals who enabled many exploits. For example, during Operation Dynamo, General Molinié resisted several German divisions allowing the re-embarkation, in Dunkirk, of several hundred thousand British soldiers. Or General Koenig, who resists in the Libyan desert against the Italians and the Germans then under the command of General Rommel, thus avoiding the encirclement of the British troops which allows them to fall back on El-Alamein. And afterwards, we can also mention General Leclerc (De Hautecloque), commanding the Free French divisions. And the most famous, General De Gaulle who organized the Resistance in France and the reconquest of territories conquered by the enemy. I hope these few pieces of information will make you want to learn a little more about the role of France during the Second World War. 🙂
