For the Luftwaffe, Goring had to pretty much force people into the senior positions. These men were not treated well by Goring or the "party". They were asked to provide miracles with no support. If the succeeded, they were "doing their jobs", if they failed, they were treated very poorly. Goring often surrounded himself by the younger officers who distinguished themselves in the earlier campaigns of the war, taking their advice over that of the more experienced and disciplined GS officers. This caused a lot of problems for the Luftwaffe later in the war.
