Do you think that a general’s win loss record on the battlefield is the best gauge of measuring greatness as a military leader

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because there are a lot of factors that go into a battle, a lot of which the general can not control. Like the timing of when they get attacked, or how many men the other army has. So the battlefield record isn't really a good representation of the general, it is of the whole army.
