Military Stupidity

They say that the side in a war that makes the fewest mistakes wins! This certainly illustrates this in a most succinct manner!

Fascinating insights into some legendary blunderific moments

A great collection of war stories that will have you thinking twice about how and why some of history's most notable events happened. You couldn't make this stuff up. Michael Coffey has done a fine job recounting some of the most notorious failures in military history. And the intro by Mike Wallace alone is almost worth the price of admission.
