Did he serve with Patton? Knew a few Patton boys who worshiped him. One is still living, mid 90’s now and still sharp as a tack. Says Patton would walk on water and all his men would follow him (walking on water.)

No, Daddy’s outfit was a bastard battalion. They were not assigned to any army.

He did say they were put under Montgomery during the Battle of the Bulge.
