Brett,

I stand corrected. There was a great general in the First World War. His
name was General von Lettow-Vorbeck, whose guerilla raids into the British
provinces of Kenya and Rhodesia successfully tied down British troops so
that they could not be redeployed to the European front. I had forgotten
about him because Africa was such a minor theater in that war.
