Don Wildman

He never visited the front lines.

He had a bunker built for him that was called, you know, in among troops, Lloyd's very last resort and Shangri-La a million miles from nowhere by his men.

He demanded a bulletproof car like Dwight D. Eisenhower had.

It was a bulletproof Cadillac.

But his worst simp is the Battle of Kasserine Pass against Erwin Rommel.

This was one of those battles that you can watch movies about this.

It's a legendary, shameful moment when a general sets his troops up for the worst possible outcome.

As a result, 7,000 men dead, wounded, or taken soldier.

Friedenhall gives up, makes plans to destroy his own bunker before being finally reinforced by those who come.

It's Friedenhall's incapacity for fighting that actually brings Patton into the war.

Patton is sent in to fix the problem, and they are opposing characters completely for all the good reasons for Patton, but all the worst ones for Friedenhall.

Where does Friedenhall end up landing in this war?

Yeah.

All right.

I'm going to read off this list just to review.

We covered a lot of territory.

We started with Braxton Bragg of the Civil War Confederate.

George McClellan, Union Army, Horatio Gates, Continental General.

Then we went to William Hull, Charles Lee, Ambrose Burnside, and finally, Major General Lloyd Friedenhall.

Worst general, Cecily, who do you think?
