Patton, and Washington for that matter, didn't use that kind of language for rolling cameras or inked quills

Don't know about Washington, but I gar-run-tee General Patton was not restrained in his language and would not give a "you know what" who heard him. (Blush!)

The difference is that Patton used profanity to get his troops to point their weapons. Honore uses it to make sure his troops are vulnerable to snipers.

And I don't care if it's George Washington himself, if an officer uses the Lord's name in vain I would tell him to fight his own war.
