Patton is my favorite historical figure of all time. I have read DOZENS of books on the man and his speeches on film are very rare. His early life was more interesting to me than his exploits in WW2.
He was and will always be the real GSP!
my dad use to know a man that worked under Patton in ww2, worked real close to him and had very close daily contact.
He said patton was mentally insane. He loved killing people and the only reason people praised him was because he killed while wearing a uniform. He said that he would have probably killed people even if he wasn't working for the government. Said he was a total nut job.
