I don’t believe O’Reilly even writes those books. Dugard must be the real writer. O’Reilly and Dugard were totally off on that Patton nonsense. They have no credibility.

Rick Atkinson, a historian and author of several books about World War II, agreed saying Patton’s death was from injuries suffered in “a fender bender, outside Heidelberg, in the fall of 1945.”
Robert H. Patton, the general’s grandson and author of The Pattons: A Personal History of an American Family, said both research and family lore discredit O’Reilly’s version of events.
Carlo D’Este, author of Patton: A Genius for War, said there was no reason for an assassination since Patton was close to death.
“You’ve got to look at what Patton’s situation was. He was a quadriplegic, he was going to die anyway, he was totally immobilized, he couldn’t move,” said D’Este. “What is the point of assassinating him and where did Stalin come from anyway? There have been a lot of claims made over the years and here is a new one. Sure, somebody could have snuck in the hospital, but why would you bother? You need to verify facts. That certainly raises a red flag with me.”

I haven’t read any of his books. The Killing series is nonsense. Most of the people he profiles died in bed of natural causes. No one killed them.

I saw O’Reilly’s story about the history of Kit Carson. O’Reilly narrated it. In his story he states that Kit Carson fought against “the Mexican Army” in San Diego County California. One problem: the Mexican Army was never in California. Kit Carson fought a skirmish against Spanish speaking Californios.

Carlo D’este’s book on the Alsos mission to recover art and gold is a very good read. His Patton book, excellent as well— he was THERE. o-rye-lie is a lightweight pansy and serial female abuser... a pussy.

Do not be so quick to reject Patton assassination claims. In the early 1980s, I knew a WW II vet who was fluent in German and who, during the war, was in an intelligence collection and analysis unit in Europe.

One day, my friend mentioned that he was convinced that Patton had been killed because he had seen an intelligence report to that effect, with the motive being that Patton was killed because he was intent on vigorous investigation of the Reichsbank gold theft. Since this put the US Army officer culprits in danger, an assassin was brought in to kill Patton.
