Who am I to argue with General Dwight D. Eisenhower? He made the comment in this post’s title regarding the Normandy invasion. He was reflecting upon how little the actual battle resembled the D-Day plan; a plan that resulted from a truly stupendous effort on the part of the Allies.

I read Ike's book, the Magnificent Bastard!! (Really!!) ("Crusade in Europe") The same analogy goes for boxing champions, too. Only the Great boxers can adapt while in the ring when confronted with a style that stymies them. They lose their original fight plan, and react to what's actually happening - or they lose the match.
