What five-star general planned and supervised Operation Torch and the invasion of Normandy in WWII?

Some might argue that Eisenhower shone brighter as the supreme commander of the Allied forces in WWII than he did as the president of the United States. He led the U.S. on the Western Front, but he was called a "do-nothing" president in his day. However, whereas his presidency was once rated by historians as "barely average," he's jumped the rankings by modern historians for that same so-called inaction, as the economy prevailed and his term was relatively peaceful, where he could have been trigger-happy and gone to war. Sometimes doing nothing is the best thing you can do.
