Answer:

William TecumsehSherman

Explanation:

American soldier, businessman, educator, and author. He served as a general in the Union Army during the American Civil War (1861–65), receiving recognition for his command of military strategy as well as criticism for the harshness of the scorched earth policies he implemented in conducting total war against the Confederate States. British military theorist and historian B. H. Liddell Hart declared that Sherman was "the first modern general.

Born in Ohio to a politically prominent family, Sherman graduated in 1840 from the United States Military Academy at West Point. He interrupted his military career in 1853 to pursue private business ventures, and at the outbreak of the Civil War he was superintendent of the Louisiana State Seminary of Learning & Military Academy (now Louisiana State University). Sherman distinguished himself at the First Battle of Bull Run in 1861, before being transferred to the Western Theater.

sergejj [24]

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2>

There were a lot of factors -- most were not what Schlieffen expected.

1. France wasn't that easy to conquer. It took longer than Schlieffen thought.

2. Belgium did not respond the way Schlieffen expected. They fought Germany.

3. Russia was more flexible that Schlieffen thought. They mobilized quicker and were much more adept at using their forces.

4. In all, Schlieffen made plans that were inflexible and did not account for the way wars are actually fought.

guapka [62]
President Eisenhower exercised his federal authority in an effort to desegregate schools after the Brown vs. Board of Education ruling. This famous Supreme Court case stated that the idea of "separate but equal" is inherently unequal. Despite the ruling, several different southern states refused to follow the new ruling. This included the state of Arkansas.

The governor of Arkansas used the Arkansas National Guard to stop nine black students from attending Central High School after the Brown vs. Board ruling. Eisenhower than used his presidential authority to send in the 101st Airborne Division of the US military to ensure that these nine students were able to attend Central High School.
