The Korean War Series Project!

RE: The Korean War Series Project!
The book The Frozen Chosen the author doesn't think too highly of Bradley either.

From text: And despite his Hollywood-like reprisal after World War II, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Omar Bradley, was not noted for his great battlefield talents either. Bradley was the Army general sitting in Spa, Belgium, 200 miles from his forward units, playing a game of bridge when the Germans counterattacked in the Ardennes Forest in December 1944, perpetrating the worst defeat and more casualties on American forces than in any other single World War II battle and this after Bradley and others had been warned by frontline intelligence about clear signs of a German attack but, in their comfortable ignorance, chose to ignore the intelligence.

Maybe a bit hard on Bradley by this author but after reading The Coldest Winter and a number of other books, I will never again think too highly of General MacArthur!
