Gen Patton was a near-perfect, aggressive battlefield commander. That doesn't translate well to any other walk of life. Lost accident report? Welcome to the bureaucracy, circa 1945.

Patton did not die as a result of any conspiracy ... he was recalled at that moment in time by the good Lord. Patton felt he was reincarnated from a earlier warrior ... put on earth by the Lord, when needed, to fight yet another war. His time on earth and his ascendancy to the rank of general in the U.S. Army at that precise moment was, in his opinion, preordained.

"he was recalled at that moment in time by the good Lord."

And praytell why would the Lord be on the Commies side - why would the Lord take back Patton so that the Russians could get the bomb and kill us in three more wars? And then kill another 50 million in the last half of the century.

Yeah. We need a Patton now worse than ever but it's hard to imagine how he would acheive a General's rank in the current PC army. As noted, he was too unPC even for the 1940s.
