who called haig the butcher of the somme
Douglas Haig, 1st Earl Haig Although he had gained a favourable reputation during the immediate post-war years, with his funeral becoming a day of national mourning, Haig has since the 1960s become an object of criticism for his leadership during the First World War.[7][8][9] He was nicknamed "Butcher Haig" for the two million British casualties endured under his command.[7] The Canadian War Museum comments, "His epic but costly offensives at the Somme (1916) and Passchendaele (1917) have become nearly synonymous with the carnage and futility of First World War battles."[10]
