After the Quebec conference, Churchill came to Washington, spent several days nt the White House and asked that General Wedemeyer be appointed U. S. aid and adviser to Lord Mount batten. Churchill emphasized he wanted the best young general in the American army to help Mountbatteri in tho Burma cam paign. Ho did not emphasize tho fact Wedemeyer had also been the chief opponent to British war plans and they would like to got him out of Washington. Wede meyer was a sperialist on Ger many. Ho had lived in Germany, knew many top-ranking Nazi generals, was familiar with their strategy. Roosevelt bowed to Churchill, and Wedemeyer went to India. However, Roosevelt did not bow to Churchill when the prime min ister adroitly suggested that Mar shall, the man who wanted the cross-channel invasion, be placed in command of that invasion.
