If I said Grant, who would be the WW2 equivalent?

Hmmm. Good one. Grant would not quit, would not let go, would not often retreat, but I wouldn’t rank him like a Zhukov, who would throw away a billion men to gain a mile, though Grant was called the butcher. Nobody leaps to mind. Do you have any candidates?

The Germans had the best generals but they were taking orders from a corporal.
