Haig shouldn't be blamed for the Somme because a lot of the reasons were from the war conditions when the soldiers having to carry a load of equipment to try and keep themselves safe and kill the Germans that was causing the soldiers to move really slow. The first rehearsals for the war were unrealistic because the soldiers weren't properly trained; it wasn't Haig's fault from how they act. Every time the British took land from them, the Germans counter would attack. That wasn't Haig's fault as the Germans were just being competitive. Haig had to change their plans as the Germans were fighting the French. Haig had France as their allies so Haig helped out the French to plan their attacks where they wanted them to happen. The British were having more of them die than the Germans.
he gave his reason by saying that he did not know that all his back up plans failed. He sent lines of men after the other because he just thought that there was a few Germans there then when the 4 lot died he sent more than before because he thought that there might be a lot of gemans he would not of sent his men there if he knew that all his plans failed.
He was a great general who won many battles.
There were over 30 battles that were in Tennessee, the most battles in anystate except for Virginia

He eventually defeated the Germans, and helped the war effort. Also, though many people say that the losses were Haig's fault, the battle pan was actually sent to him from the admrialty and Haig had doubts about the plan. Furthermore, the tactic was standard of the time and any other general would have done exactly the same thing.

Sir Douglas Haig as a general could easily be named a butcher. Any person in any war could be called a butcher . In history ,many men are rightly or wrongly given the same title. Though few men actually deserve it. Haig does not deserve the name Butcher because England won the war and killed more Germans than they did to us. He had a very good tactic and without it the war would have gone nowhere. so he didn't deserve it :p I think Haig does deserve the title "Butcher of the Somme" as the amount of people he sent to their deaths is not really humanly possible. He killed 25,000 soldiers and 60,000 casualties in only a few hours. In addition, Haig continued to use exactly the same tactics, even though after a few weeks (or even perhaps after the first day), it was obvious that thousands upon thousands of people were being mowed down by machine guns.
