These quotes were lifted from the Patton Society. Snippets from the e-book "The unknown Patton" which they offer online, and I, personally, do not doubt their voracity.

If you're interested in Gen. Patton, I can recommend PATTON : A Genius For War by Carlo D'Este

The book is also available on tape. The link is to Amazon.com

I wish you guys hadn't gotten on the subject of Patton. While cruising around that web site, I came across a nice little Garand page there (Patton was a huge fan of the Garand), and am reminded that all I need to do to get a CMP Garand is fill out the forms and send in the check, having done the appropriate shoot and joined the appropriate organizations. Dang, better get to work scraping together that $500 (in the wake of Xmas/a basement buildout/game- and media- room purchases; been doing my part to get the economy rolling!)
