Default Re: Military History Thread: 5 Greatest Military Wins/Strategy/Manueve

D-Day and the succeeding month or so would certainly be a good candidate as the greatest logistical achievement in military history.

I haven't read about it in years and have forgotten everything I ever knew about the battle but military leaders have long been obsessed with achieving their own Cannae.

Trafalgar still lives on in tradition and legend.

But in the end I think rather than trying to rank them it would be more fun to focus on particular battles/campaigns and explore them.
