‘... Gen. Patton would have never called his fellow Americans “losers, pussys, or murderous psychopaths” ...”

No, he called the guy a coward and smacked the hell outta him...

My dad served in the 93rd Div of the Third Army under Patton..He worshipped Patton...

Props to your family.

Patton understood the need for pride.

Cost men their lives, but we STILL remember the relief of Bastogne and the 3rd Army’s dash across Germany. It would have been awesome if his men could have collared Adolf.

And that HE could have taken the fight to the Pacific.
