Most are unaware of Patton going after Poncho Villa and killing two Mexicans and strapping them to the hood of his car as a trophy.
Oh, do we need men like Patton again.
============
George Patton was different. He had a country to defend.
Oh, we need men!
" ... in 1916, a Mexican bandit called Francisco “Poncho” Villa was causing some problems to the U.S. and killed 16 Americans in New Mexico. President Woodrow Wilson assigned General John Joseph Pershing to go after Villa. General Pershing chose Patton to aid him on his special assignment. On his first days on this assignment, Patton took out three Villa’s followers. This was a great surprise for Pershing until Patton decided to strap two of the bodies to some fences. General’s Pershing response to this act by Patton was a very brief statement. “We have a bandit in our ranks, this Patton boy! He’s a real fighter!” Patton left everyone amazed. With this, Patton demonstrated his passion while in a fight and how tough he was."
