Eisenhower was not a strategist or logistics person. Eisenhower never commanded anything is his life. He was a a staff officer. Before the war broke out he was asking Patton for a job under him and Patton was a General by that time and Ike was still a Colonel.

Not a strategist or logistics guy.

The Normandy invasion would love to have a word with you.

Gen Marshall had the ability to identify the right people for the right jobs. If you want to know who really “won the war” it was George Marshall.

Seriously overrated and almost never criticized for his complicity in the bloodbath at Normandy.
