I saw some nice quotes of WW2 leaders while waiting for the game to load, so I would add a few:
„The fruits of victory are tumbling into our mouths too quickly" -Hirohito
„If everyone is thinking alike, someone isn't thinking" -George Patton
„Battles are won by slaughter and manuever: The greater the general, the more he contributes in manuever, the less he demands in slaughter" -Churchill
„It is not truth that matters, but victory"
-Adolf Hitler
„Among the men who fought on Iwo Jima, uncommon valor was a common virtue" -Chester Nimitz
„Old soldiers never die: they just fade away" -Douglas MacArthur
„Boys, if you ever pray, pray for me now" -Harry S. Truman.

I got some:
"The German army is a machine, and machines can be broken!" - Konstatin Rokossovsky
"In the first six to twelve months we will run wild upon victory after victory, but if the war continues after that, then we have no expectation of success" - Isoroku Yamamoto
"To the German commander: NUTS! The American commander" Anthony McAuliffe
"We have severely underestimated the Russians, the extent of the country and the treachery of the climate. This is the revenge of reality." - Heinz Guderian
"If we come to a minefield, our infantry attacks exactly as it were not there." Georgy Zhukov
Note: most of these I knew from waiting for the game to load.
"As long as there are sovereign nations possessing great power, war is inevitable." Albert Einstein "Giving up is not an option in war, for it proves one's incapability and incompetence as a leader." - Me (Little Racoon)

It meant that the Germans are nuts in their tactics or probably their bravery (although that would be more relevant to the Japanese).

You merely adopted the shitposting. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn't see a proper post until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but blinding!
