Robert E. Lee should be on your list. Although he fought for the South - he is still part of American history....and a damn good General. |

The list you have compiles is impressive and as you have said there are more. Gen Colin Powell, Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, Gen. Douglas MacArthur. Gen. Creighton W Abrams Jr, Gen. Omar Bradley, Gen. William Westmoreland and Gen David Howell Petraeus. And the list goes on, each having made American strong. |

Comrade Obamov

G. Robert E. Lee
H. MacArthur
How could you forget these two? Scott above Lee? Pershing above MacArthur?

they are great in their respective role in modern and american history as they shape the life of the world even after their death, not to mention in their contemporary history.but if u want me to choose i would go for washington. this is because without him, the world we have today might be very much different. imagine a world without an independent and strong amercia. |
