Sorry-i have to disagree with you about monty. Monty took the credit for defeating the Germans at the Battle of the Bulge. Ask any G.I. vet who fought there, and tell them that monty was the man wqho won the battle almost singlehandedly, and I bet you will get a very colorful reply.

Certainly, there were many better generals in the British army than monty. How about Sir Auchenleck and whats his name-the fellow in charge in Burma. Certainly they were alot better then monty.
