Dwight Eisenhower

Dwight David "Ike" Eisenhower (1890–1969) was the 34th President of the United States, serving from 1953 until 1961. Previously, he'd served as Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe during World War II, with responsibility for planning and supervising the successful invasion of France and Germany in 1944–45.

As President, he oversaw the cease-fire of the Korean War, kept up the pressure on the Soviet Union during the Cold War, made nuclear weapons a higher defense priority, launched the Space Race, enlarged the Social Security program, and began the Interstate Highway System.

Dwight Eisenhower in The Man With the Iron Heart
General Dwight "Ike" Eisenhower became the senior United States Army official on the ground in Germany after the end of World War II. He was firmly in favor of a continued American occupation of the country, even after the German Freedom Front began inflicting massive casualities upon Allied troops, and the will of the American people began to erode.

Nonetheless, the possibility that Eisenhower might be the Republican Party's choice to run against President Harry Truman in 1948 was already being floated in 1946.

Eisenhower transferred back home in 1946. He was succeeded by General Lucius Clay.
