I sometimes get a kick out of these, "Who's the best general" discussions, so I thought I would introduce a new twist:
Who is the best general by alphabet. I did this at work, so some are for fun, and I couldn't think of anyone for "I" or "U"

Since I assume it has to be last name, how about:
For I – Shōjirō Iida – commanded 15th Army and conquered Burma; 7,000 losses versus 30,000 British Empire losses For U – Roman Fyodorovich von Ungern-Sternberg, the infamous Mad Baron of the Russian Civil War in Asia |

Love the idea The great Conde for C. Or Cordoba. Sherman or Sheridan or Maurice de Saxe for S Von Moltke or Marlborough. Zhukov for Z. Shaka is Awesome but he didn't have to work with Stalin. |
