Hosted by Walter Matthau, this 1963 special episode of "The Big Picture" profiles one of the great American generals of WW2 -- Omar Nelson Bradley. Produced by the Army Pictorial Center.
Outstanding moments in General Omar N. Bradley's life to be shown on "THE BIG PICTURE" -- This is the story of General Omar N. Bradley, the man of quiet dignity yet with a punch that packed a terrific wallop. Here on film is a pictorial history of an Army general who smashed ahead with a force of almost a million and a quarter men. A military leader's achievements are usually measured in terms of battles won. In the case of Omar Bradley, General of the Army, the scope broadens. His achievements are evaluated in the winning of a great war and laying the foundations for world peace. This is the first of several film presentations being planned for the Army's television series, THE BIG PICTURE, that will focus on the lives of outstanding general officers in current history.

These are wonderful! I get chills looking at those five stars! It's impossible to overstate what these men did for us!

This man is widely unknown because he was modest an introverted, but he was key central to saving Europe and this nation. There has never ever been enough credit given to this great American soldier.

Did Bradley REALLY save Europe? From what? Rothschild's Usury? That's what the Axis (Germany) was ultimately opposing! ECONOMIC EXPLOITATION! Enjoy paying your unconstitutional income taxes! And thank you for being such a candy-ass! FOR FREEDOM! AND THE AMERICAN WAY! (If you only knew)

I have met this great man when he was Chairman of the Bulova School of Watchmaking and my father was on the board of the school, My father was also in the 1st class of the Bulova School. Also, I have met 2 other 5-star general Ike and MacArthur who I share a birthday with (26-Jan). Wish i still had the birthday card MacArther sent me back for the one I sent him but with 50+ years and several moves things get lost :(

After retirement Omar Bradley became Chairman of the Board of Bulova Watch Company. My father, as an Army officer, met him during this time in the late 1950's. At lunch General Bradley noticed the castle insignia on my dad's collar and remarked "The Corps of Engineers have always been my favorite". We still have the Bulova cuff links that he presented to my father. You would be hard pressed to find a finer man than Omar Bradley.

You'll believe anything. This guy was an ELITIST who had everything handed to him on angolden platter. Mof, that's the way it's always been. We actually invent our hero's out of thin air, and if you don't believe it, you don't know history. Patton's, Montgomery, Bradly, Roosevelt, Churchill, Hodges, ALL OF THEM were nothing more than silver spoons given the priviledge to be great, and it's always due to their BLOODLINES. WAKE-UP ALREADY!!! Q, sent me!!! WWG1WGA

@user-gj7ci7wc5i 4 года назад

Because there is no such dramatic topics like Patton n Mac Arthur. Bradly is a gently and quietly general.

R.l.P. General Omar Bradley ❤

@cedricgist7614 Год назад

Thank you for sharing the story of General Omar N. Bradley. I guess I first became aware of him from the, "Patton" - although my Dad would cite the officers of 5-star rank from time to time. My Dad helped me pay attention to leadership. "The Class the Stars Fell On" - the USMA Class of 1915. What, 39 of 164 graduates received at least one star with Eisenhower and Bradley reaching 5-star rank. I liked Karl Malden's portrayal of Bradley - how he supported Patton while in a subordinate role, and how he supported Patton when Patton was his subordinate later on. We always key on the negative and some years ago some source suggested that Bradley didn't deserve the reputation as the soldier's general, that he was aloof and seldom met with the ordinary G.I. I'm not sure that Eisenhower or even Patton were as close to the men as some would suggest. I've wondered about Eisenhower and Bradley, how superiors like General Marshall and President Truman perceived the talents and potential of these men and chose them over more experienced and even flamboyant officers. I liked that theme you shared about Bradley, "getting there." Good video. Thank you.

@DumDumHistory 4 года назад

Probably correctly. Patton was an aggressive commander but he was also an insubordinate egomaniac, much like Montgomery and McArthur, both of whom should really have gone the same way Patton did. His public advocacy of an attack on the Soviet Union was hopelessly unrealistic. Europe was in ruins, Britain was bankrupt and the US public just wanted the thing over with.

@DumDumHistory 4 года назад

That said, I do personally feel that Bradley and Eisenhower were naïve about the Soviets, and were also overcautious. Every effort should've been made to reach Prague and Vienna before the Soviets did, and the failure to do so condemned Central Europe to Stalinism.

@DumDumHistory 4 года назад

@Nomad Vagabond Yes, I do know the history. Montgomery's operation was a disaster, but he DID nevertheless press for an assault on Berlin, much as Patton did. Montgomery was an outstanding trainer and organiser but his plans lacked the vital element of realism, as Market Garden so graphically showed. Patton was a brilliant operational and tactical commander, but his strategic and political competence was dubious. Montgomery also enjoyed the benefit of having achieved his victory at El-Alamein with plans that had been laid down by his predecessor Auchinleck, who's biography I strongly recommend. warfarehistorynetwork.com/2016/09/23/sir-claude-auchinleck-overshadowed-equal-to-erwin-rommel/ Probably one of the most ill-used commanders on either side.

@deadandburied7626 3 года назад

Patton, like MacArthur, would have started WW3

@xchen3079 4 года назад

The man was only an ordinary soldier, didn't have the quality of his jobs. The reason he was chosen was because he was not keen to take risks and easy to be controlled. He was not on the same level of Patton.

Bradley was Patton’s executive officer in North Africa and the Italian campaign. Only in Normandy was he over Patton and that because Patton couldn’t be politically correct..
