Who was the Supreme Allied Commander for the U.S. during World War II who later became president?

General Dwight D. Eisenhower was the Supreme Allied Commander during World War II. This is the common title given to the two Supreme Allied Commanders during World War II. He was not the Supreme Allied Commander for the U.S., per se; hence, the title 'Allied'. Eisenhower's official title actually was Supreme Commander Allied Expeditionary Force (SCAEF), and it was for the forces in northwest Europe. The Second Supreme Allied Commander was for Southeast Asian, and it was called the Supreme Allied Commander South East Asia Command (SACSEA). This post was held for most its existence by Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten.
