Clearly you are a military history buff. Who do most military historians think is the best general the US has had?

Good general. Absolutely a horrible president by judgement of most historians.

A pretty good general with all the advantages of unlimited weapons, ammunition, food, and men who basically waged a war of attrition against a weaker outnumbered opponent. He did what his boss wanted.
Also a war criminal, along with Lincoln and Sherman.
I admit I admire Grant for writing his memoirs battling cancer down to the wire to provide for his widow and family. That took real courage, dedication, and determination.

The Duke of Wellington was better.
BRB with stats.
He was the best at defensive battles.
He was great at logistics.
He also was a true leader who led from the front.
He also defeated Napoleon who is certainly one of the best field generals of all time.
In short, Arthur Wellesley was a badass, and that is why the Duke of Wellington is a hero for the ages.

Ben Franklin was the greatest president ever

I thought Robert E Lee was the better general? The war would’ve been over a lot sooner if he would’ve been in command of the union army?

And first USPOTUS to be arrested ……….by (DC) police for speeding — 3 times, and possible intoxication

One of the best American presidents in history.

I think it's affecting votes for both states in the "Which state do you think of as the Most Southern? thread.
