Marshall is rated as the man of the year because he has directed the organization of the greatest armed force in our history, in the brief period of two years since Pearl Harbor. As contrib uting to the success of the war he is rated above Sta lin, Churchill and Roosevelt, because of his military genius. Not only has he organized a great army, navy and air force, and provided their equipment, but has directed the supply of material to our allies under lend lease and timed the operation of forces of war with a strategy that seems almost unbeliev able. In addition to the chief of staff, the rise and build up of American military leaders during the past two years has been phenomenal, particularly in compar ison with other nations. Gen. Eisenhower has been chosen to lead the invasion forces. McArthur has established a great record in the South Seas. Ad mirals King, Nimitz and Halsey have shown wonder ful ability under many adverse circumstances in the Pacific. Generals Stillwell and Chenault on the Bur ma front, Clark in Italy, Patton of the Tunisian and Sicilian campaigns, Arnold, chief of the American air force, and Carl Spaatz and Doolittle, leaders of the air invasion forces on the continent, all are noted for brilliancy in action, as are many others who have been chosen to lead American arms on fifteen fronts. Everywhere our forces are they are led directly or assisted by our own generals who are giving a fine account of themselves. The British have a great general in Montgomery, and Mountbatton in East India and China is creat ing a great fighting force—aided by Stillwell and Chennault. England also has others in the Middle East anfl on the Western front who have not yet risen to renown. Russia as Vanputin and Timoshenko and others who have shown great leadership and strategy in the maneuvering of troops and accom plishment of results, which history will record as some of the greatest generals of the war. This year and perhaps years to come, may bring forth other great heroes and military leaders. The remarkable thing is the present predominance of such men in our own American armed forces on land, sea and in air. These men were untried and unknown two years ago. Like in all great emergencies they have come forth to meet unexpected duties. Out of the .war for American freedom we found our Washington, Hamilton and Jefferson, in in the Civil war Lincoln, Grant and Lee. This power lies in the latent force of our American democracy and our desire for freedom. It is the same intelligent and spiritual power found within our boys who, without detracting from the greatness of leadership, should be rated as the real men of the year. With out their spirit and ability and devotion to the coun try’s cause, our leaders could not rise to such glor ious heights.
