“In WWII the Germans also had better generals”
I keep hearing that. Likely true in 39 or 40. By 1943, not even close to the ones we had.
While FM Rommel was the most celebrated German general with knack for media relations, daring-do, and press attention, FM Erich von Manstein was the most brilliant mind of WWII IMHO. Kesselring, Guderian, Model, were also extremely talented.
