That was my father’s opinion of Patton.
My Father had unusual tastes in Generals but I think he was ultimately correct. He practically worshiped Patton and that was long before the movie came out.
He also thought Montgomery was both a fine man and general.
He hated Eisenhower until the day he died at age 90. Didn’t like Bradley but did like Simpson.

My dad preferred Patch, having had both as commanders.
