13. Hitler and Stalin: military command relationships and the couse of world war two on the eastern front

Abstract

This thesis examines the highest command relationships that existed in the Soviet Union's Red Army and in the German Army just prior to and during the Second World War. The roles of Hitler and Stalin as supreme military commander are considered in relationship with their higher generals and how these relationships bore significantly on the course of the war. Hitler's increasing micromanagement of the German war effort, and Stalin's belated willingness to delegate military authority make up the central themes of this work. A variety of secondary sources, as well as generals' memoirs and diaries, point to the conclusion that Hitler and Stalin were both military amateurs who possessed grand strategic visions, but lacked the competent operational understanding of the trained military technician. After the invasion of the Soviet Union, Hitler inserted himself further and further down into the chain of command and directed tactical movements from hundreds of miles away. By contrast, Stalin began the war dominating the Red Army but gradually came to respect the abilities of his military specialists. Hitler's disdain for his generals and Stalin's respect for his proved a major factor in the Soviet victory in the Second World War.

Abstract

McMaster begins this section by recounting his visit to the country with President Trump in late 2017. McMaster asserts that American policy in the region must be built on long-term strategies that consider the realities of the region, rather than limited objectives based on domestic political considerations.[6] McMaster also offers considered analysis of both Iran and North Korea, and the unique problems of engaging with either regime. Part of the deal included the release of American hostages, and McMaster compares the episode to the illicit Iran-Contra Affair under President Ronald Reagan.[9] If there is any criticism to be had with this book, it is that McMaster moves quite quickly through each nation and region.

Abstract

This is an analysis of the U.S. Army's personnel decisions in the Second World War. Specifically, it considers the U.S. Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall's appointment of generals to combat command, and his reasons for relieving some generals while leaving others in place after underperformance. Many historians and contemporaries of Marshall, including General Omar N. Bradley, have commented on Marshall's ability to select brilliant, capable general officers for combat command in the war. However, in addition to solid performers like J. Lawton Collins, Lucian Truscott, and George S. Patton, Marshall, together with Dwight D. Eisenhower and Lesley J. McNair, often selected sub-par commanders who significantly underperformed on the battlefield. These generals' tactical and operational decisions frequently led to unnecessary casualties, and ultimately prolonged the war. The work considers six case studies: Lloyd Fredendall at Kasserine Pass, Mark Clark during the Italian campaign, John Lucas at Anzio, Omar Bradley at the Falaise Gap, Courtney Hodges at the Hürtgen Forest, and Simon Bolivar Buckner, Jr. at Okinawa. Personal connections and patronage played strong roles in these generals' command appointments, and often trumped practical considerations like command experience. While their superiors ultimately relieved corps commanders Fredendall and Lucas, field army and army group commanders Clark, Hodges, and Bradley retained command of their units, (Buckner died from combat wounds on Okinawa). Personal connections also strongly influenced the decision to retain the field army and army group commanders in their commands.
