I like Patton too, but Rommel and Zhukov were both decorated combat veterans of WWI.

So was Patton. In fact, he was a cavalryman before he transferred into the then experimental armoured units.

Zhukov was experienced in commanding more people than either Patton or Rommel. Though I would rather have wanted Konstantin Rokossovsky from the USSR or Omar Bradley from the USA.

Why would i want some faggot drama Queen like Patton protecting me. Or even worse, a brain dead nazi who managed to get a reputation as a great commander without ever fighting the principle enemy, and still losing every single one of his campaigns ultimately.
Rommel's skill is just a myth. He wasn't promoted on merit but on nepotism.

Well if we are going to break the limits of what we have then I pick the Old Salt Himself Admiral Chester Nimitz and no man or ship shall ever cross the oceans again!!

t. doesn't know shit about the desert fox

Rommel hands down. Patton will be a formidable enemy and zhukov was bitch made with daddy stalin behind him giving him whatever he wanted. Only land Rommel lost after kicking ass and taking names without supplies, was when he wasn't there.

InB4 wheraboo
Rommel was fuckin badass and the Aussies that took back the land in Africa were no fuckin joke

>triple dubs

Mercy me.

I choose this one.

The "Desert Fox", this expert German career soldier who lost his life because he ultimately stood up to Hitler, was a myth invented by NATO to give the new West German military an example of a "good German soldier" that they could aspire to be like.

The reality is that Rommel was a mediocre commander who was very pro-Hitler.

>zhukov was bitch made with daddy stalin behind him giving him whatever he wanted.

He was actually one of the only leaders who actually told Stalin off.

neither, or at least not the american

Patton because he was woke on the JQ.

I'm sure you have an abundance of proof for this.
Or any proof.

>inb4 "it was all scrubbed by the joos"

From a purely strategic resource perspective, hands down the Zhukov.

Think about it.
>Worst Choice
Rommel. Because he like Germany was already beaten by the Allies and the Soviets in the first place.

>Meh Choice
Patton. Unless you radically change American investment in Europe, they were nowhere near prepared to face an onslaught of both the Germans and the Russians at once. Even by the end of the war, with American Forces in europe at its peak and Germany obliterated, the very notion of Operation Unthinkable was deemed ridiculous as the allies (not just Americans) had nowhere near the numbers or the resources to face down the Soviets in a straight up war

>Best Choice
Zhukov.

Even if you cut off lend leasing, depending on which stage of the war the Soviet Union was more than capable of grinding down the German onslaught. America Entering the war would be grim, but even then the sheer resources the Soviets could bring to bear if they had the time to mobilize their industry and population to full potential would be more than enough to, if not push back the Germans and Americans, whittle them down to a standstill.

All true, but have you not even in passing looked at his ventures and tactics in his career? The man was successful and accomplished. Expert tactician not like zhukov getting btfo until after Western supplies came in, and even blood n guts used wave tactics a few times

>Russia without lend-lease
>grinding down the Germans
bro pls, the first half of the war was a German shit stomp

Rommel had experience fighting both on the western front and in Africa. He also spearheaded the idea of using tanks without infantry. Patton was an all around bad ass who got assassinated in a "car accident" with kgb and US soldiers who "happened" to be in the other car. Go fuck yourself you commie dicksucker.

I think I saw that on Huffington post too sometime. Car accidents happen because Russians are sabotaging our cars when they aren't rigging our elections.

The KGB didn't even exist until the 1950s.

>cut off lend leasing
Don't forget the pre-war aid America gave the USSR in refurbishing its industrial complex. No USA, and Soviets would have had Imperial-Russia tier industry to begin with. This is something often glossed over, but American industrial technology was instrumental in allowing the USSR to churn out equipment at the rate it did.

>Pershing was permitted to bring into New Mexico 527 Chinese refugees who had assisted him during the expedition, despite the ban on Chinese immigration at that time under the Chinese Exclusion Act. The Chinese refugees, known as "Pershing's Chinese", were allowed to remain in the U.S. if they worked under the supervision of the military as cooks and servants on bases. In 1921, Congress passed Public Resolution 29, which allowed them to remain in the country permanently under the conditions of the 1892 Geary Act. Most of them settled in San Antonio, Texas

Patton. Dude was smart enough to just dig in the history books and find a winning strategy, rather than try to re invent the wheel.

Also, kept his cool in a shoot out. Got into a raid as a LT against Pancho Villa's forces. Plus he was an Olympic shooter if I remember correctly. I think he medaled.

It was a comedy

Patton
Not even a fair competition

Patton learned what courage actually was in the trenches

warfarehistorynetwork.com/daily/military-history/patton-in-wwi/

“George Patton was always on the front lines, never in the rear with the Red Cross,” wrote Captain Viner. “That was one of the secrets to his greatness.”

“I felt a great desire to run, I was trembling with fear when suddenly I thought of my progenitors and seemed to see them in a cloud over the German lines looking at me. I became calm at once and saying aloud, ‘It is time for another Patton to die.’ called for volunteers and went forward to what I honestly believed to be certain death. Six men went with me; five were killed.”

WRONG

you clearly know nothing about history
>he was murdered by his own command...while leading an underarmed and famished army that was ruined by piss-poor economic planning by hitler.

Not defending hitler, but he DID take part in an attempt on the leader of his country’s life. In English, we call that being a traitor.

Also, during Rommel’s time in Afrika, the German military was doing quite well. Save for the push and pull nature of the desert warfare, the DAK actually had decent supply lines. Also, hitler made many GOOD economic decisions that all the generals ree’d at even though they were sound. Retards like you think the push for Stalingrad and the Caucasus was a bad idea, when in fact it was necessary for the oil to support Germany’s economy.

Rommel lost bro

Between June 1941 and May 1945, Britain delivered to the USSR:
3,000+ Hurricanes
4,000+ other aircraft
27 naval vessels
5,218 tanks (including 1,380 Valentines from Canada)
5,000+ anti-tank guns
4,020 ambulances and trucks
323 machinery trucks
1,212 Universal Carriers and Loyd Carriers (with another 1,348 from Canada )
1,721 motorcycles
£1.15bn worth of aircraft engines
1,474 radar sets
4,338 radio sets
600 naval radar and sonar sets
Hundreds of naval guns
15 million pairs of boots

>Russia without lend-lease
Yeah it was American and British supplies that kept the Soviet Union from collapsing in 1942.

historynet.com/did-russia-really-go-it-alone-how-lend-lease-helped-the-soviets-defeat-the-germans.htm

>"Extrapolating from available statistics, researchers estimate that British-supplied tanks made up 30 to 40 percent of the entire heavy and medium tank strength of Soviet forces before Moscow at the beginning of December 1941, and certainly made up a significant proportion of tanks available as reinforcements at this critical point in the fighting. By the end of 1941 Britain had delivered 466 tanks out of the 750 promised."
>"British and Commonwealth deliveries to the Soviet Union in late 1941 and early 1942 would not only assist in the Soviet defense of Moscow and subsequent counteroffensive, but also in increasing Soviet production for the next period of the war. Substantial quantities of machine tools and raw materials, such as aluminum and rubber, were supplied to help Soviet industry back on its feet: 312 metal-cutting machine tools were delivered by convoy PQ-12 alone, arriving in March 1942, along with a range of other items for Soviet factories such as machine presses and compressors."

If the Germans had taken Moscow and captured/suicide'ed Stalin. The Soviet Union would have been finished.

So sorry Mr. Autist we get confused by all the labels that the USSR gave to it's murder Thug groups. The NKVD becoming the MVD and then the KGB after which is now the FSB. They're still the murder arm of the Russian government.

You're confusing ignorance with confusion.

If I have to be Der Fuhrer Im gonna hole up in the alps and put Walther Model in charge of the defenses. He had the best success against zhukov.

Brilliant tactician, meh at strategy and logistics. Would often stage daring raids, capturing great swaths of enemy territory before his crippled logistics caught up to him and he had to give up all he conquered. Tried, his best, though - and his defense of Normandy was unironically not terrible.

>Patton
Good offensive general. The USA nearly always had the supplies and logistics to support his mad drives, though. Would have been interesting to know what he would have done without America's industrial might.

had to tell Stalin to fuck off and actively turned things around on the Eastern Front, alongside other Deep Operations types like Rokossovski

Nobody.. All I'll take is Chesty Puller

>we call that being a traitor
Hitler already betrayed his country with his policies. It ain't traitor if you're removing someone in the best interest of your country.

>Retards like you think the push for Stalingrad and the Caucasus was a bad idea, when in fact it was necessary for the oil to support Germany’s economy.

Stalingrad wasn't necessary. The oil fields could've been taken without losing the sixth army like a retard. There wasn't any need to enter the city itself. Fuck it does it matter? Germany was fucked from the get go.

ITT: Meme battle commanders. Here's the thing about life and certainly the upper ranks of the military. The charismatic and ostentatious get all the credit. There can be a man just as good at that profession or better, with a better track record, who's done it far longer; who will never be as appreciated in history.

Zhukov on this list is on a whole different level than the other 2, the only one of the 3 to deserve his God tier reputation.. Rommel is remembered as THE best German general only because he was implicated in Hitler's assassination attempt, whether he was actually affiliated with it is tough to say. Very likely he had no part in it, but he had been bitching to other high ranking officials about Hitler, which looked pretty bad given the timing. If he'd stay'd loyal like pretty much all the other big name German Generals, he'd likely be just as forgotten as Keitel or Guderian. It's the fact that historians can say Rommel was never on board with Hitler's plan, that enables him to more historical redemption than most of Germany's other officials/generals.

Patton is remembered more for being a theatrical cowboy than for his military prowess. The man was a master of the publicity stunt. A very likable man, he's probably my favorite of the 3.... but I gotta go with Zhukov. It would be the only chance of living you got.

But very likely after Germany/US are defeated and Rommel/Patton disappear in the Gulags, you'll probably be headed there too for making the wrong joke around Zhukov or making a remark someone found odd. Or hell, if some Russian mole personally didn't like you, all he'd have to do is say you made some anti-Soviet remark.

Unironically Patton. Rommel and Zhukov were alright but Patton's the type of person that'd personally lead a charge to strangle the others himself. Props to Zhukov for telling Stalin to blow it up his ass and actually live to tell the tale though. Besides, Rommel sure as shit didn't fare so well at D-Day :^)

Rommel wasn't there as the landing wasn't expected and he couldn't bring in Panzers due to hitler's autistic order that only the furher's word could order their advance and he had a fucking NEET sleep schedule

Hitler had led the country down a path of self destruction. Making massive blunders and using necessary resources for non-vital activities. His crony's like Göring were fucking up the military in their own special ways. They were trying to remove the terrible leadership that was destroying Germany. The war was lost. Rommel did the right thing. It's a shame that the bomb didn't work.

Also you're a faggot.

When we look at it from our modern perspective yes invading the Soviet Union was a huge blunder. One that ensured the downfall of Germany. Yet you have to look at it from the facts and view point the German High Command had at the time. They had ROFL stopped at this point Poland, France, Norway, Denmark, Holland, Belgium, and Yugoslavia in practically a year. In addition their intelligence information showed significantly lower troop levels, equipment, and cohesion (Due to purges). They viewed that they could defeat the USSR in less than a year.

I highly recommend watching these videos. He does a good job of providing historical context on the prism through which Germany judged invading the USSR.

youtube.com/watch?v=FQdjGJJktfk

youtube.com/watch?v=A_3R-Rkn_98

If they had achieved a settlement with Britain. That could have ensured victory in Russia. Also getting the Japanese to attack would have kept many key Soviet forces in the East and not in the West. In the end overconfidence, logistics, and Zerg rush doomed the invasion.

Not to mention, since the early days of the Nazis in the 20s. The communists were always the arch political rivals. The early nazi street thugs were always having literal street battles with the communist thugs. National Socialism was generally seen as the answer to the comminist threat. If you listen to all the old Nazi speeches, they don't consider the West to be their primary threat. Always the communists. And, since the beginning. They always considered the east the way for Germany's expansion. All the unoccupied land would make a lot of space for future Aryan generations.

War was inevitable. It probably could have been won too, but it would have required something majorly different happening. Supply infrastructure fucked Germany hard. A slower advance with supply lines to keep up would have been smart. Perhaps bypassing heavily armored cities (of which Stalingrad was the most heavily armored and entrenched) would have been smart. If Germany sued for peace with Britain after their high water mark, it perhaps might have been possible. Britain was really pushed completely back to their islands and showed all signs of imminent loss without major intervention, they would probably be willing to resolve it through diplomacy. If peace was made with the west, they could through their full military might at the Soviets which might have enabled a win.

OR if Germany simply financed their nuclear research properly, they could have won the nuclear race easily. All the nuclear theory behind the bomb was originally German. It's just Germany favored rockets as their experimental science weapons. Though they were far ahead of anyone else in the ICBM game, the nukes could have been far more helpful.

Id want Forrest or Jackson desu. They’d go apeshit with modern equipment.
