At my first job out of college, I had a supervisor who had been a part of the occupation army. He had some very interesting stories to tell. Anyway, he was convinced that Patton was murdered. Unfortunately I don't remember any of his specifics as to why. But he was certain the auto accident was no accident.

Anyway, he was convinced that Patton was murdered. Unfortunately I don't remember any of his specifics as to why. But he was certain the auto accident was no accident. I recently saw the film, The Last Days of Patton, in which George C. Scott portrayed Patton during the occupation and (mainly) following the accident. I don't know if the filmmakers got everything right, but the way the accident was depicted in the movie makes it seems very unlikely that this could have been a planned murder. This film, which I had not even heard of previously, was memorable but extremely depressing.
