    The introductory section is worth a read; gives some basic insight into him. Admirable person. The rest is all fact-based and simply elaborates on the first section using said facts, and so would provide no opinion of him, more just what he's done, where he's gone, who he's been around etc.

    ST, Beta > Delta. Thinking ISTj. Unfortunate way to go.

    I am happy actually. It's either INTJ or ESFJ, ESFJ is it I think.

    Alpha? Why Alpha? I thought excellent military commanders were, by definition, Se valuing.

    I think strong Se types of Alpha and Delta can also be excellent military commanders. For instance, I think Dwight Eisenhower was LSE (how "excellent" he was is another discussion) and I'm convinced that Ulysses Grant was SLI.

    Oh, and if anyone is interested, I think he is an 8w7 sp/sx or sx/sp. (Oh look, how convenient, Ezra is typing a brilliant commander as the same as him...)

    He's another example of an MBTT INTJ typed as an LSE (Schwarzenegger being the other). Perhaps there's something fruitful in this idea.

    There is no more point in saying that all excellent military commanders are by definition Se valuing than saying all intelligent people are by definition NT types. For example ESTjs would easily be excellent commanders. As do ESFjs. Even if they don't value Se. Any type can make an excellent military commander. Their style of leadership would just be very different. And their motivations for becoming a military commander would be different. E.g. an INTj wouldn't likely be a military commander because they want to conquer people for fun but for some deeper ideological reason.

    I think he's SLE but subtype and not typical of his type. He was very well developed in his super-ego imo.

    XSTp makes sense after reading your link. It seems Se>Si what make you guys think Ti>Te?

    I kind of like the Idea that he was ******'s conflictor though it says nothing about his type

    EDIT: LOL ******

    He was not ******'s conflictor imo.

    He's very similar to Zhukov, politically unskilled, insubordinate, love by his soldiers and characterized by a extreme boldness in tactics and strategy.

    He wasn't a Nazi. He wasn't even a fascist. Just a fantastic military commander.

    It would have been more admirable for him to not wage war on behalf of Germany.

    It would have been more admirable if there was not a war to fight in at all and when we do not have a choice as to where we are born, good people find themselves seemingly arbitrarily assigned to opposing sides. Virtue or admiration should not be devalued or valued by the side, but by the man and the life.
