The Worst World War 2 Generals Of All Time

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

A week after the infiltration, the Greeks had pushed deep into Italian-held Albania, and Prasca was replaced. The Greco-Italian conflict dragged on for three months until Mussolini convinced Hitler to intervene. The German infiltration of Greece, in turn, delayed the German infiltration of Russia – possibly changing the entire course of the conflict.

One of the best-known German generals due to his role in the debacle at Stalingrad, von Paulus was caught in an impossible situation – and nearly always managed to do the wrong thing. Von Paulus’ troops were on the verge of taking the critical city from the Soviets, but he lost his nerve and decided to wait until the Volga River froze. This gave the Russians time to organize a massive counterattack.

************************

The worst generals in World War II transcend nationality, experience level, and the size of their commands. These bad generals blundered into defeats, hampered their own troops, disdained technical advances, and cracked under pressure time and time again. Whether Allied or Axis, this is a list of the worst World War II generals.

Many of these generals had their worst defeats when their countries were at their least prepared for conflict, such as the hapless Soviet generals who faced the German infiltration of Russia in 1941. Others were experienced military men who should have known better than to take the risks they took – or not take the risks they should have. And a few were just not fit to command men in the field.

Here are some of the worst WWII generals and what they did that was so terrible. Vote up for the most terrible military commanders.
