page 4, "Patton Under Fire on Front Line Visit", excerpt:

In the trip to the command post unit that stuck to its positions despite a two-day heavy tank, artillery and infantry counter-attack, the general was forced to dismount from his command cars as shells landed on a road bend ahead. He finished the journey afoot.

As he began climbing a steep hill to the outpost, heads of soldiers popped out like rabbits from foxholes to watch the tall spare figure.

"It sure is good to see him in the front lines," said Corporal John W. Davis, 28, of Brooklyn, N.Y. "I hear he wants to get Field Marshall Erwin Rommel in one tank and him in another and have it out. If he ever does, I sure want to have some money down on him."
