Patton was wrong? Russia was militarily at their peak. If the German army couldn't finish them off, what makes him think the we could.

What an idiotic idea, Patton a great leader, successful when given an objective, was like, MacArthur, an egotist.

Do you think that the US army was chopped liver?

Considering what Russia became after the war, I'd say that Patton's idea, at least politically, was excellent. Logistically, perhaps less so.
