Best Answer

People could argue about a top 5 list until the cows come home. Lists tend to reflect the viewpoint of a person's country. For example, about two-thirds of European fighting was on the Soviet front, but British and US histories often gloss over this.

In the top twenty, I suggest the following might appear:

Fall of France 1940 (Germans routed British and French)

El Alemein (turning point for the war in Africa)

Fall of Singapore (Japanese routed British and Australians)

Siege of Leningrad

Siege of Moscow

Stalingrad (turning point on the Eastern Front)
