In the Kasserine Pass presentation I found it interesting that due in part to the lack of unity there were so many U.S. casualties, or vice versa. It's interesting that changing command from Anderson to Eisenhower could so strongly impact that feeling of unity.
In the medical advances presentation I was interested to see that we had better drugs/medicine than our enemies and in part this helped us overcome the regional causes of Malaria more so than the locals of the region that we were fighting.
Learning about Herman Goering I was slightly confused on how Hitler could feed his love/interest in art if it truly was becoming a distraction to his efforts in the war. I also thought it was strange that he surrendered to the U.S., yet killed himself before after trial. Did he really think after what he had done that he would face any other options at trial besides execution?
