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.

The Normandy Invasion was planned by Field Marshall Montgomery not Eisenhower, a lot of the preliminary work was done by Admiral Dickie Mountbatten and his staff. Look it up.
