Description: Ce punti de legatura se pot identifica, in istoria secolului XX, intre germanul Hindenburg si francezii Petain sau de Gaulle, intre polonezul Piłsudski si finlandezul Mannerheim, intre turcul Mustafa Kemal si oricare dintre cei pomeniti mai sus? Faptul ca toti s-au remarcat ca militari destoinici si ca toti au ajuns, in tarile lor, sa ocupe functia suprema. In ce mod, pentru cat timp si cu ce rezultate e deja o alta chestiune. Dar acest lucru s-a intamplat intotdeauna in conditiile unor crize pe care oamenii in uniforma au fost chemati sa le rezolve sau in care, cel mai adesea, s-au implicat din indemn propriu--Publisher

What bridges can be identified, in the history of the twentieth century, between the German Hindenburg and the French Petain or de Gaulle, between the Polish Piłsudski and the Finnish Mannerheim, between the Turk Mustafa Kemal and any of those mentioned above? The fact that they all stood out as worthy soldiers and that they all came, in their countries, to occupy the supreme position. How, for how long and with what results is already another matter. But this has always happened in the face of crises that people in uniform have been called upon to resolve or in which, most often, they have become involved on their own initiative--Publisher
