"Lt. General George S. Patton Jr., has never been properly recognized for his contribution to military strategy, although he executed the fastest advance ever in history, far faster than Guderian’s famous blitzkrieg into Poland."

Thanks for the wonderful post!

You can tell these guys are not the typical freepers. As soon as you start quoting historians, they start with the personal attacks - but they are good as they maintain a front of being defferential to Patton who was a genius, the most feared by the Germans, and the most feared by the Russians (and perhaps that is how he was killed.)
