Ferdinand Foch (1851–1929) was a French general and military theorist who served as the Supreme Allied Commander on the Western Front during the final year of World War I. He is best known for his role in coordinating the Allied forces to victory in the Hundred Days Offensive, which ultimately led to the Armistice of 11 November 1918. Foch is often remembered for his strategic acumen and his famous quote, "My centre is giving way, my right is in retreat; situation excellent, I attack." In Hebrew, his name is translated as פרדיננד פוש. In French, he is referred to as Ferdinand Foch, and in German, he is known as Ferdinand Foch. Foch's contributions to military strategy and his leadership during World War I have cemented his legacy as one of the most significant military figures of the 20th century.
