Whom do you consider to be the greatest American military man (army,navy,air force) in history?

My own choice would be admiral Nimitz, for his perfect naval tactics and victories against equal odds and for the breadth of imagination in his plans.

I would say every person that has served are all great. Sure, some are greater than others. I'm just thankful for all our service members.

I would say General George S. Patton, 5 star general, old blood and guts we call him. I am from the North Shore of Boston near where he was born. He used to write letters to God during WW I I ." Dear God, Please send me some good weather, if you do ,I promise I' ll send you enough huns to keep to keep your number writers months behind in their work." Guess what ? It worked. George You Rule!!!!!

MacArthur

I'm going with final frontier on this one. George S Patton, or Robert E. Lee.

It's a shame Patton died the way he did...

Well you forgot the Marine Corps and I would go with Chesty Puller. He was a lead from the front unlike alot of what we have today

At the risk of sterotyping, I must say George Washington. This man was an island in terms of drive, motivation, determination, and tenacity. He led by example, which was the only way he could have gotten the job done. He stayed focused and showed his men the courage and leadership necessary to beat the British !

the late Maj. Richard Meadows. read the story at the following link. his son was my platoon leader in korea. i also heard stories of some of his "events" in vietnam. the guy is one of those that is legendary but not to the general public. you won't find his stuff in history books but he made a lot of history occur.

Chesty Puller!!! Most decorated Marine in history. Puller is the only Marine to receive five Navy Crosses. He fought in Haiti and Nicaragua, World War II and the Korean War.
