"I can not find anyone saying anything about winning, except for the obvious fact that the allies did win."
One cannot ignore the appalling waste of human life in World War One. Some of these losses were undoubtedly caused by incompetence. Many more were the result of decisions made by men who, although not incompetent, were like any other human being prone to making mistakes. ......... The victory in 1918 was the payoff.
