directing America in its most titanic war, he still is setting

precedents at a rapid pace. That the passing of another

or made heavy inroads on his vigor was demonstrated by 
his epochal flight to Casablanca to chart 1943 war plans 
designed to force "unconditional surrender" on 
Germany, Italy and Japan.
