Great thread... I've heard this story numerous times but it never gets old. I actually just read mention of it again while reading Killing Patton.
I've heard that's a good book. I need to pick it up.

Thanks. I wish I knew more about what his experience was in WWII. Sadly he died a few years before I was born so all I know for sure about him is he served as a tanker in the 4th Armored Div from a little after Normandy until the end of the war.

I liked it. I need to do some more research into some of the claims... like people wanting Patton dead. I could see the Russians wanting him gone though b/c he was an outspoken critic of Russia and Communism.
