My Dad was a topographer in the 1st division, ran into to Patton and his driver while out with a French foriegn legion officer while on a recon mission in North Africa .... Patton didn’t take very kindly to them being there before he was and ordered the driver to take them into custody.. the ffl officer told Patton to go screw himself and grabbed my dad and left. Dad never had much good to say about Patton. He ran into him later over the white stallion debacle... said Patton took credit for work that the big red one did 😁

Did your dad ever talk about what a jerk DeGaulle was?

So the Russians protected the horses?
