Sir Douglas

how did sir douglas haig impact the war?

during ww1

By senselessly butchering hundreds of thousands of his own troops.

Haig planned major offensives that he claimed would quickly break through the German lines,thus opening up a drive on Berlin that would end the war.However,these offensives always quickly bogged down with heavt casualties but Haig,instead of calling them off, continued them for several months for no gain except an increase in casualties.

By 1918,British Prime Minister Lloyd George was sending as many British troops as possible to other fronts to keep them away from the command of Haig and his murderous,unsuccessful offensives.
