	Bernard Law Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Montgomery was placed in command of II Corps during the evacuation and he was part of over 330,000 British and French troops that were successfully evacuated from Dunkirk by the time the operation ended on 4 June.
		Although Montgomery managed to recast plans for the invasion of Sicily, which was conquered in five weeks, inter-allied tensions grew as the American commanders, Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley, and Clark took umbrage at Montgomery's attitudes and boastfulness.
		Montgomery died in 1976 and was interred in the Holy Cross Churchyard, Binstead, Hampshire.

	Montgomery
		When Montgomery was a student at Sandhurst, Britain’s military college, he led a gang of rowdy cadets in a series of practical “jokes.” One of these consisted of tying up a successful cadet while Montgomery lit fire to his uniform.
		Montgomery’s brother said that when Monty attended St. Paul’s school he first showed a “streak of showmanship he never had before.” At Sandhurst, and out of his parents’ supervision, he had developed a brash and caustic attitude when speaking to superiors.
		Montgomery did not understand why Lawrence did not take Medina, and he could not understand why the head-on attacks of the French ports would fail; clearly because he could not understand the strategy involved, he could not learn from history.

		During the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921), Montgomery was Officer Commanding the County of Cork, Ireland's largest county by area.
		This conflict was notable for the ferocity of the reprisals carried out by Crown forces in what was nominally the United Kingdom, such as the burning of homes and businesses, torture of detainees and at times outright murder.
		Cork is acknowledged by both Irish and British commentators as having been among the most bitterly contested regions, largely due to the intransigence and anti-Irish bigotry of leading officers such as Montgomery.
