I don't know if you saw that Ike movie A&E did but there's a scene where Ike explains to Churchill how stupid the air strategy is.
" scene where Ike explains to Churchill how stupid the air strategy is"
didn't see it, but quite refreshing to know that. Good for him!
What many people don't know is that the Air Campaign was a separate Campaign -- not under Eisenhower. He did have some air support for the ground -- but the strategic air campaign was separate.
