Top Ten Worst Military Decisions in History-- Part 2

Continuing with List Universe's top ten.

I sure don't know about #8, but it was a dumb decision under the circumstances.

5. IGNORING THE GATLING-- George A. Custer June 1876. He had two to four Gatling guns with him, but left them in camp. Really could have used them that day.

4. INVADE GALLIPOLI-- Winston Churchill 1915. Slaughter.

3. SOVIET INVASION-- Adolf Hitler September 1941

2. MICROMANAGING THE WAR-- Lyndon B. Johnson August 1964

1. INVADING AFGHANISTAN-- Yuri Andropov December 1979. And, what country is there right now.
