U.S. Supreme Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower

Dwight D. Eisenhower commanded Allied operations in North Africa and became Supreme Allied Commander for the invasion of northwest Europe. His central task was coordinating a coalition of armies, navies, air forces, governments, and senior commanders. Operation Overlord and the subsequent campaign required strategic judgment and sustained logistical planning as well as battlefield leadership. His later presidency differed from his wartime role as the senior Allied commander in Europe. His approach to coalition leadership required managing national priorities as well as military operations. The scale of the headquarters and its responsibilities makes the word commander much broader than front-line personal direction.
