    Very well done indeed, Friedrich :cool: It is indeed Horrocks in an unusual pose - very shortly after he had been seriously wounded in a Luftwaffe attack.

    Go to the top of the class ! ;)

    Too many Rommels here. Watch out for dyphteria bites!


    Hahaha, despite the horrible typos, the conclusion was about right!

    You scored as a Georgi Zhukov [​IMG]

    You score as Georgi Zhukov,you re a comunist

    75% Georgi Zhukov
    60% Erwin Rommel
    55% Heinz Guderian
    45% Vassily Chuikov
    35% George Patton
    30% Otto Skorzeny
    25% Herman Goering


    In any case, still too close to the Dyphteria guy! And what are all those nazis doing hanging around me?

    Well, Martin, it's maybe that I've just watched A Bridge Too Far and, therefore, been re-reading books and notes, as well as having a look at the pics. Then I also remembered your certain liking of Arnhem... :p And he seems sooooo British there...

    Looking back over my outcome, I don't think I would be any those. I would be more of a Terry de la Mesa Allen, CO of the 1st and the 104th Infantry Divisions.

    BTW wasn't Skorzeny's generalship a brevet rank?

    Scored this:

    You scored as a Heinz Guderian...

    However at the moment I am interested in Generals like Balck and Manteuffel.

    'If Manstein was Germany's greatest strategist during World War II, Balck has strong claims to be regarded as our finest field commander. He has a superb grasp of tactics and great qualities of leadership'

    Major-General von Mellenthin

    William Starke Rosecrans (September 6, 1819 – March 11, 1898) was an inventor, coal-oil company executive, diplomat, politician, and U.S. Army officer. He gained fame for his role as a Union general during the American Civil War. He was the victor at prominent Western Theater battles such as Second Corinth, Stones River, and the Tullahoma Campaign, but his military career was effectively ended following his disastrous defeat at the Battle of Chickamauga in 1863.

    My 3xG grandfather was wounded at Chicamauga, loosing his right kneecap to a Union bullet. He spent the remainder of his life farming with a leg that would not bend at the knee.

    Another relative was also wounded there and was sent to Chattanooga to recuperate. His wife left home to travel up there to tend to him. Outside of Chattanooga, she drank from a well that apparently had typhoid in it. She traveled on and began to tend to him before she got sick, giving it to him and they both died, leaving 2 or 3 small children. That particular family sent 8 sons to fight for the Confederacy, loosing 2, one just days before the war ended.
