Eisenhower's Other Letter

Dwight D. Eisenhower was the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces during World War II. With a great deal of concern, care and caution, he organized the D Day invasion that took place on June 6th 1944. He wrote a letter that was designed to motivate the troops. But he also wrote another letter that was an explanation in case of failure. It was a short letter. But the end of it grabs my attention. He simply said: "In case of failure, I take full responsibility."
