How many US troops died at the hands of Vichy French forces?
During Operation Torch - the invasion of French North Africa - British and US troops fought against the French Armee d'Afrique who were under the command of Vichy France - which was considered at least by their commanders to be the current legal government of France.The landings were very mixed being opposed reasonably effectivly in some places and welcomed in others, in all around a 1000 British and US troops were killed or wounded in various fights - but balanced against that several French Generals and units welcomed them with open arms - after the end of Torch the Vichy Government was taken over by Germany and the remaining Armee d'Afrique units became an Army Corps fighting with the allies for the rest of the war.
Was Bonaparte one of the most outstanding soldiers in modern history?
Yes, Napoleon stands among the first rank of the Great Commanders. Primarily what make him thus is his leadership, in civil terms as well as military, and this is rare indeed. Napoleons years of power really last from 1796 to 1809 in which he humbles all opponents, Austria, Prussia & Russia, in continental Europe. And then come the years of decline: Spain & Russia are his undoing. His Marshals are defeated in Spain, Victor, Soult, Massena, Marmont, Jourdan, none can contain the, initially small, consistant British threat posed by Wellington: Russia despite Borodino, a massive bloodbath, allows him to march on Moscow, only to find the place essentially deserted. The predation of Cossacks & the winter decimates his Grande Armee. After Leipzig, another massive set piece 3 day affair of slaughter, combining Prussian Austrian, Swede (Commanded by former Marshal of France, Bernadotte) & many others, Napoleons fortunes are briefly resurgent in the defence of France itself, but it is all too late now & he is exiled to Elba. The Hundered Days, from April to June 1815 is a wonderful vignette, a great campaign which, of course the French should win against the British & Prussians: Waterloo should have been the great mans most famous victory, but he blows it. No ! it's no good blaming Ney, Grouchy & others, or the weather for that matter, had the French won Napoleon would have grabbed the laurels for himself: Another great man, Wellington, snatched them from him by the persistance of his defence, & the help of Blucher. Make no mistake, no Blucher, no British victory... The French win. Vive l'EmpereurNapoleon Bonaparte was one of the most outstanding soldiers in modern history. He was victorious in most of his battles, and gained control of much of continental Europe.
