. I know the British are praising Monty but I personally don't. He had done a great job in the desert but his late political maneuver needlesly costed the life of many (IMO). The poor lads at Arnhem to end with. I definetely am a fan of the movie "A bridge too far".
For my part, I prefer commanders such as Auchinleck, Wavell, Wingate...
