In first one, Douglas MacArthur

Second one, Robert E. Lee
Quote:
Biography:

Robert E. Lee was the legendary commander of the Confederate forces in the Civil War. Against overwhelming odds, Lee scored victory after victory against the Union forces led by seven different generals. Famous battles include: 2nd Bull Run, Antietam, Gettysburg, and — possibly his greatest performance — Chancellorsville. Outnumbered two to one, Lee broke with convention and divided his forces not once but twice — ultimately driving the Federal army under Joseph Hooker from the field.

Leadership Attributes:

Personally, General Lee was reserved and seemed enigmatic to his men. But on the battlefield he was daring and audacious, as at Chancellorsville, where he divided his troops in the face of greater opposing forces. His diplomatic skills were as well-honed as his generalship. For example, in his early role as presidential adviser to Jefferson Davis, he tried to ease the difficult personalities of Confederacy President Jefferson Davis and General Joseph E. Johnston.

Who else: Genghis Khan: Speed, firepower and a divine mandate(always best) to rule the world...as evidenced by the (his) DNA of many people today. We owe him one as he put an end to the Islamic threat from his end and he was a fairly liberal ruler ...as long as you paid your tribute. Besides silk warshirts, two compound bows and a string of ponies per MONGOL he was adaptive of captured technology including biological warfare-catapulting infected bodies into besieged cities. Terror, paper money and the pony express were instruments of his rule. We still speak of limitless enemies as a Horde-WHAT A LEGACY Throw in Benteen's observation that "life in a cavalry (The 7th) regiment is like a ship at sea", Ol' Ghengis would have had few concept difficulties on a U-boat. Patton studied his tactics for operation Cobra.

Random pointless trivia:
Napoleon was actually about average height for the time, about five foot seven, some of the causes for this ongoing myth have been laid at the feet of the confusion between the French and British measurement systems of the time, his elite guard required to be six foot or taller, thus making him small by comparison, and a mistranslation of his nickname 'le petit caporal' which was given to him because of his camaraderie with his fellow soldiers.
