Ok. Who do you think had the best warriors in ww2?

It could be about their spirit, honor, valor, tech, weaponry, superior air power, etc... any!!

Patton was definitely one of the greatest warriors in WWII.The man had a tough attitude,with an audacity to match,but behind all that was a military genius.

Another great warrior of WWII would be Eric Hartmann.A legendary German ace who had a total of 356 victories.The highest record in the war.

There were a lot of very brave men from all the Armies during this conflict, and it must be a job to pick out the bravest man or the luckiest man, for with out that luck he would not have survived to tell the story as many of them did.

Field Marshal Rommel was a good man..

Field Marshal Zhukov,he defended the eastern Russia from the Japanese and lead Soviet forces against the Germans in the west.

Now what about Guy Gibbson who won the VC on the Dam Buster Raids. He was killed flying his 183 mission, he had completed 6 full tours of duty before the odds caught up with him, and that was in a time when a flyer was lucky to last ten missions and to complete a tour 30 was a rare thing.
When Guy Gibson started his career in Bomber Command the aircraft he was fling at first were little more than flying coffins they were that out of date.

John Frost:
was a British Airborne Officer who commanded the 2nd Parachute Battalion during operation market garden and was responsible for holding on to the North side of the bridge over the Rhine river for 4 days when relief was unable to reach them.
the bridge they held on to was named after him, in honor of his achievements

In the first place, to fulfil a solemn international obligation . . . an obligation of honor which no self-respecting man could possibly have repudiated. I say, secondly, we are fighting to vindicate the principle that small nationalities are not to be crushed in defiance of international good faith at the arbitrary will of a strong and overmastering Power.
