We know the Germans feared him more than any other field commander on the western front. To me that says it all. Just his presence in England paralyzed them long enough for the allies to establish a secure beach head in Normandy. Now that is real power. So yes, there were senior commanders who did not like a man of action and rough words but he did get the job done including the 101st Airborne in Bastogne, thank God for such commanders who loved country more than political correctness, sort of reminds me of President Trump loving the USA and taking on the evil swamp that has now admitted that this crap is a c**p planned carefully since the e******n and they even use the word c**p.
Yes that is true. br He was an action general, yes... (

Trump loves Trump, period.

Certainly not in the same way. I would never, you probably would never and no one should ever claim "unmatched wisdom".
General Patton has entered the Pantheon. Read the biography of him: Patton: A Genius for War. You will learn of a most remarkable American and soldier. Thank goodness for his military service to our dear nation during his long career.

True, but he doesn't scare me near as much as his cult followers do. Moyers says Trump has an open sore where his soul should be.
Patton as a field command-feet on the ground moving with the troops- he was the best we had. He understand the way the German war machine work, He use that information against the Germans. He knew his place in the Army, not like MacArthur, who though he was a god until a captain from Missouri show him the door.
