Ehmm No Raggy you tell us all about Launcelot Kiggell and how he was so instrumental in us "winning" the war despite not knowing how the chaps were doing up at the front. You see despite the opinions at the time of some junior Divisional General Staff Officer, Haig's Staff dealing and directing the activities of the entire British, Commonwealth and Empire Armies in France from 1916 until November 1918 did rather well - a damned sight better that the Generals and the nsataff's of the German armies opposing them - this evidenced by the fact that the Germans did actually lose the First World War - any problem disputing that fact Raggy?
