I know its been a while since I did a Patton post. They won’t be regular, but I’ll still do them because, by God, Patton was a fucking Hero.
Some like to play Patton as a bit of a nutbag. He certainly might have been. But that doesn’t really change the fact that he was a truly great man in a truly great time. He was under-utilized.
