Omar Bradley

Generaal Van Die Weermag Omar Nelson Bradley (12 Februarie 1893 - 8 April 1981) was 'n senior offisier van die Amerikaanse weermag tydens en na die Tweede Wêreldoorlog. Bradley was die eerste voorsitter van die gesamentlike stafhoofde en het toesig gehou oor die beleid van die Amerikaanse weermag in die Korea-oorlog.

Bradley, gebore in Randolph County, Missouri, het as 'n ketelmaker gewerk voordat hy by die Amerikaanse militêre akademie in West Point betree het. Hy studeer aan die akademie in 1915 saam met Dwight D. Eisenhower as deel van "die klas waarop die sterre geval het." Tydens die Eerste Wêreldoorlog het Bradley kopermyne in Montana bewaak. Na die oorlog het Bradley op West Point klas gegee en in ander rolle gedien voordat hy 'n pos by die Oorlogsdepartement onder generaal George C. Marshall geneem het. In 1941 word Bradley bevelvoerder van die Amerikaanse leër Infanterieskool.

Ná die Amerikaanse toetrede tot die Tweede Wêreldoorlog het Bradley toesig gehou oor die transformasie van die 82ste Infanterie-afdeling in die eerste Amerikaanse lugafdeling. Hy het sy eerste voorste linie in Operasie fakkel ontvang, onder generaal George S. Patton in Noord-Afrika. Nadat Patton heraangestel is, het Bradley II Corps beveel in die Tunisië-veldtog en die Geallieerde inval in Sicilië. Hy het tydens die inval in Normandië die Eerste Amerikaanse leër beveel. Na die uitbreek van Normandië neem hy die bevel oor die Twaalfde Weermaggroep van die Verenigde State, wat uiteindelik drie en veertig afdelings en 1,3 miljoen man bestaan het, die grootste liggaam Amerikaanse soldate wat ooit onder 'n enkele veldkommandant gedien het.

Na die oorlog was Bradley die hoof van die Veterane Administration. Hy word in 1948 stafhoof van die Amerikaanse weermag en voorsitter van die gesamentlike stafhoofde in 1949. In 1950 word Bradley bevorder tot die rang van generaal van die leër en word die laaste van slegs nege mense wat tot vyf bevorder is -ster rang in die Amerikaanse weermag. Hy was die senior militêre bevelvoerder aan die begin van die Koreaanse oorlog, en ondersteun president Harry S. Truman se oorlogsbeperkingsbeleid. Hy het Truman oorreed om generaal Douglas MacArthur in 1951 te ontslaan nadat MacArthur die administratiewe pogings om die strategiese doelstellings van die oorlog terug te trek, teëstaan. Bradley het in 1953 aktiewe diens verlaat (hoewel hy die volgende 27 jaar op "aktiewe aftrede" gebly het), en het tot sy dood in 1981 voortgegaan om in openbare en besigheidsrolle te dien.
