TV commentator Andy Rooney is another who loathes the memory of Patton. Of course, that's not particularly surprising, considering the way Patton wanted to deal with the Communists of his period.

I wonder if Rooney had been recruited or subverted as far as back then, or if it came to him later as he was working his way up the ladder of his postwar career.

Anyway, he was no Ernie Pyle or Bill Mauldin, that's for sure.

Well, if Rooney hated him, he must've been a bum, LOL! Tell me, was Rooney a journalist then?

Andy Looney will soon be forgotten.

But General Patton will always live in history as the greatest general of all time.
