That one line has stuck with me ever since I first saw this movie when I was 10 or something. "No one ever won a war by dying for his country. You won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country!" lol
Was first and foremost in my mind about becoming a US MARINE.
Patton was the allied general that Hitler was most afraid of.
absolute fact!!!!
He was a great General but he was a flawed man too.
Even Eisenhowever admitted that he lacked control of his temper and it gave him great concern.
Patton saved my Dad. He was a POW in Germany and unknown to him his medic was Patton's son in law. Patton sent his army right to the POW camp to rescue his son in law. My Dad was standing in door when Patton drove up. Patton asked my Dad how he was doing, My Dad said"better now that you are here general"
My dad had a lot of encounters with general Patton between 1939 and 1945. My dad joined the army when he was 17 and 1939 by 1942 he was in the E7. Pretty outrageous by today's standards but the army went from a quarter million men to over a million men in the space of a couple years. If you're a good soldier you got rank. In 1942 my dad was 20 years old and he looked like he was 16. He is a lean mean fighting machine in any case.
What a great story to pass down in your family for generations.
My Dad telling his story.ruclips.net/video/jIuio-cuup8/видео.html
My grandpa was over there and so was his brother. They just didn’t know where the other one was. Till my grandpa (under Patton) showed up to liberate him!
Mandy Mandy I love these stories about the Greatest Generation!
The General got in trouble quite often as he was not politically correct! God love him!!
You know what I think of P.C . ? Nothing at all!
We need leaders like General Patto
Sometimes he went a little overboard. Like the slapping incident. I love Patton but that isn’t about PC. Even Eisenhower had a problem with it and said it caused him to doubt Payton’s ability as a leader that he couldn’t control his temper.
We could use another Patton
@@blake7587 he never doubted Patton, he demoted him to keep the people at home from going crazy
Courage is not the lack of fear, it's action despite the fear.
There can be no courage without fear
AMEN bruddah! +++
"Courage is not the strength to go on, its going on with no strength." Theodore Roosevelt
It's interesting though. After enough of it you do lose fear
John Wayne said "Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway"
George C Scott nailed Patton's speech ... he played the role almost perfectly .
My father served with General Patton in North Africa he said Tge troops loved him and hated him at the same time
I served under a Colonel that was much like that. Tough as hell, demanding, but fair. He turned a failing unit around in less than a year and we won awards afterwards. He gave us pride and even when we cursed him we still loved him.
@@ninline2000 what instills pride in a unit of men is discipline. Who has to give them discipline leadership. Who did they hate leadership. Why do they hate leadership because they force discipline! That's why Patton wanted his man to have their shoes shined, clean uniforms, properly worn uniforms, ties and don't forget your helmet! Start looking like a soldier you start to act like a soldier and then you surprisingly become one! Yeah I would have cursed him but at the same time I would have had a hell of a lot of respect for him and a lot of love for him. He took good care of his men as best he could in the situations he was faced with. My dad served in his units from 1939 till 1945. Sometimes he said he was a son of a bitch and he would smile. Dad loved that general. What is not commonly known as The general had a soft spot in his heart for his ncos. Couple things happen with my dad that could have gone South if you know what I mean. But Patton being Patton nothing happened.
My father also served with Patton and said the exact same thing. He once told me there was never a man he loved and hated more than him.
I just heard this speech again last weekend in my home State of Alabama right before President Trump came out on stage to speak in Cullman, Alabama. Everyone loved it!
My father lead a battalion of armored vehicles under Patton's 5th. Armored Division during WWII. He got very upset about how Patton was portrayed in some scenes.
They said he did some things that he didn't do and my father knew they were incorrect because he was there.
My favorite story was Patton shooting at airplanes with a pistol.
My dad was second armored but he was transferred to 6th armored to form the cadre of the new division just before Operation torch. My dad was pretty busy with the military and then his civilian career. The only movie that my dad took me to with no one else was the movie Patton. Dad loved that movie. He would watch it whenever it came on TV after that. I got it on VHS for him. And then when DVDs came out I set up a DVD in front of his TV and got him the DVD so he can watch it on DVD. I always thought my dad should write down his experiences and his stories. He had wonderful stories and some pretty sad ones as well. But he never wanted to. He's been gone 20 years now. I guess I'll just have to scrape the cobwebs off My Brain and do it for him. Maybe throw a few of my mom's stories in from the Battle of Britain. My mom was a nurse in London during the blitz.
@@JohnRodriguesPhotographer Fantastic, much respect t your parents. Too bad your father didn't write a memoir of his war experiences, but it is understandably too emotional for many.
My father was in Patton's 3rd army (687th F.A.B.)......
and him being an olympic champion at pistol shooting i am sure he hit something.
One of my Heroes!!!! A man of honor in service to the USA!!!!!!
My Dad fought under Patton in WWII. His men really respected him.
“Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn’t even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.”
- Heraclitus
Patton was a warrior
One of the most brilliant Generals in American history. Fear/Discipline/Respect. Thanks for a very good reaction.👍
This truly summarizes the American 🇺🇸 spirit! God bless our troops! God bless everyone. Ps I love your channel and can’t wait to see you get 1000 subscribers! ❤️
That was the right video. Patton often had "rough" speeches and this was a cleaned up speeches from what he usually gave.
When a group of Chaplains were getting a "tour" of his quarters one of them noticed a open Bible and asked him if he really read it. He supposedly said "Every God-d@med day"...
What a great leader of men he was, his speeches were considered highly controversial with his liberal use of swearing, but it resonated with his men and he was respected by them all as not only did he give great speeches he led by example. You would never find him to the rear, but always up front, in the thick of it alongside his men, much respect, HOOAH!
My Papaw met General Patton during the war. George C. Scott was the actor portraying Gen. Patton in this clip.
Superb
@@TheDonsChannel The eponymous film "Patton" is well worth a watch. There's a bit of fable and a metric shitton of fact. (the metric shitton is 2.2x the Imperial shitton)
He played the role brilliantly
@@jamesgirard1090 My late father loved it as he served in that 3rd Army that raced to the rescue at the Bulge.
Gen Patton was an outspoken, up front bastard that his men and superior officers hated and loved. He was a man who got things done.
HE'S....
TELLING
THE
TRUTH 🇺🇸💥👍✝️
(we are true warriors)
I totally agree 👍
For those that may not realize it, that was George C. Scott playing Patton in the movie “Patton”. All of the war scenes were from movies.
General Patton's nickname was "Old Blood and Guts." They had a lot of scenes for my favorite war movie, "The Longest Day" about the WWII Normandy Invasion. It's an old Golden Days of Hollywood movie. If you ever have chance to watch it, it's worth the time.
Very true about 'The Longest Day', back when real explosives and equipment were used. No CGI back then.
Love The Longest Day.
I'm a 48 old Paralyzed Vet. 2nd Recon Bn SARC. I listen to this every so often. Never pull the plug, I will live and fight.
Patton was the most feared General by the Germans, and for good reason. Had Ike given the resources of ammo and gas to Patton in 1944, instead of caving to politics and letting Montgomery try Operation Market Garden, there would have never been a battle of the bulge, and the war would have ended six months earlier in Europe.
Patton was one of the greatest generals in our history, and a true American who had no fear, no matter the odds, I thank you heavily, for your reaction it fills me with pride as an American.
I live 38 miles from the Patton museum at ft Knox Kentucky when i go their I swell with pride when I remember this speech and see his uniforms I thank God for George s Patton ...
i was stationed there and went to the museum many times, even after I got out.
This reminds me of the comment that Will Rogers made in the early days of WWII responding to a question as to how we could train a civilian to be a capable soldier in only 13 weeks...he said "It's easy, we only teach them to run in one direction..." (forward).
You really should watch "Patton" it was a great movie.
The Pattons. A proud Scots Irish family.
😀
Americans do have a fighting spirit (but we get it from somewhere, you know 😉). Cheers.
Also, you should read a book on the real Patton, he never asked his men to do anything he wouldn't.
As a young Private undergoing Basic Training at Fort Benning, one of my tasks was to clean General Patton's office (then the base Commander's office). On the wall was a quote from Gen Patton that read -
"An army is like a cooked piece of spaghetti. It must be drug along behind you, it cannot be pushed ahead"
I always remembered that quote throughout all 21 years of my service. I always tried to live by that ideal. When I retired in 2010, I reminded all of my troops of that quote as I was leaving. I only hope at least one of them carries it along today.
If you have not seen the movie Patton it is worth the time.
I've watched it at least 10 times. One of my favorites.
My dad always told me anyone that claims they're not afraid in combat is either a liar or a psychopath. In either case it's not good
He was a front line general right there with his troops. He survived the war only to be killed stateside in a jeep accident
@Ana Tullis you are correct except the vehicle accident wasn't stateside.
It was in Heidelberg, Germany in December of 1945
Damn.. That's sad.
He was in a car, not a jeep.
Fun fact, Patton and "Chesty" Puller were 2nd cousins...
My first duty station in the Navy after finishing my specialty training was the USS Lewis B Puller.
@@unseenentity326 "Good night, Chesty. Wherever you may be"...
Who knew!
@@maryhall4756 Amazing!
Damn didn't know that
I’m a mom of sons who bonded with them watching war movies with them. “We Were Soldiers “ is a great one to add to your list. Movies like “Braveheart”, “Blackhawk Down”, “Patriot”, “Saving Private Ryan” “We Were Soldiers” displayed that brave men do what they must, not what is comfortable or convenient. My young adult sons now display these same qualities.
WE WERE SOLDIERS Really hitHome with me. I served 18 months in Vietnam. Brought back good and bad memories.being in war when your are 18 years old just out of hight school is a shock. Glad today young men arent drafted.i
What a wonderful speech
I am biased, US Army Infantry veteran. The US military fighting spirit is unquestionable. We hate to loose at anything. I am proud of our servicemen and women around the world doing their duty for my country. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this speech. The movie Patton is a very good watch. It's not 100% accurate but George C Scott gives a fantastic performance as General Patton.
My grandfather served in Patton's 3rd Army. Got frostbite during the Bulge and liberated Buchenwald. Came home and went straight to the textile mill in Natchez, Mississippi and asked my grandmother to marry him.
Fun Fact: Gen. Patton was dyslexic. He also graduated near the bottom of his West Point class YET, as history shows was one of our greatest generals ever to serve. BEST thing about Patton was that he hated politics and was a TRUE warrior at heart. I wish these were the qualities of today's Generals and Admirals but at last, back in Patton's day, they didn't have CNN or MSNBC to offer him a job after he retired.
I definitely love Patton one of my favorite historical figures.
A great movie on the D-Day landings is called "The Longest Day". You should check it out.
The Longest Day and In Harm's Way are two of my favorite men movies. And I'm a woman 😂😂😂
Love that one! I grew up watching all the old war movies with my dad. Still watch them today. Patton was exactly what was needed then. His spirit epitomizes the pride of what will forever be known as “the greatest generation”.
You do realize, don't you, that we Americans got a lot of that attitude from y'all Scottish.
Thats true
Very much so. Most Americans have a lineage of Ulster Scots
You got that right. We have it in our blood, 2nd only to English blood. My Father and 2 brothers were Marines.
@@WestValleyTransparency Especially in the South, we're as thick as fleas on a hound.
Fun fact at the time of the revolution 1 out of 3 people in America was Scottish 😎
When General Patton was training troops, he would walk the berm while they were doing live fire target shooting. He was a true Warrior.
At a VFW bar, I heard a WW war II vet refer to him as "Old Blood and Guts".
Another Vet quickly responded: "Yah', our blood and his guts!"
The movie Patton is fantastic. They just didn't have the correct tanks for the time period so that bugged me a bit 😂😂😂
The voice you hear is George C. Scott reciting the General's speech in the movie "Patton".
My father retired from the Army after 20 years, and he kept a typed copy of this speech on his desk for years.
He got into a gunfight during the Punitive Expedition and carried the guys that he killed back to headquarters tied to the hoods of the cars that he and his men were using...
One of the best Patton stories is that General Eisenhower believed Patton too undisciplined (independent) to lead the Allied invasion of Normandy. Nazi military leaders, however, considered him the Allies’ best commander and expected he would lead a cross-channel invasion. As part of the elaborate disinformation campaign leading up to D-Day, Patton was placed in charge of a phantom army, complete with plywood aircraft and inflatable rubber tanks, in southeast England to make it appear he would strike at the channel’s narrowest point at Pas de Calais, France. Even weeks after D-Day, the Germans continued to amass troops at Pas de Calais expecting that Patton would still come ashore there.
Legend has it, they continue to be nervous he may still invade. lolol
The only thing worse than fighting a war is losing a war.
The only thing worse than losing a war is losing your virginity to your father. Fuck evil people and evil societies that need to be dealt with by war.
That voice is from the Movie " Patton" by George C Scott who played General George S Patton. A great movie to watch. produced in 1970,. the scenes in this video is from many war movies.
Keep hoping you will show something on Audie Murphy. World war ll most decorated soldier.there’s been movies made of him. Also documentaries. It makes all me feel proud.
Courage is best described as...confronting your fear and making the decision to take the action needed despite the fear!!!!!
I absolutely love my country, and especially our military men. I've met a lot of incredible veterans, both men and women, who served in every war since WWII. Several of them were legitimate war heroes, some of them very high ranking. One was a General. He was in his late 80s when I met him, but he kept an amazingly dry sense of humor and his pride until the day he died. Even when he was, for all intents and purposes, wheelchair bound, he would force his body to stand during the pledge of allegiance and when the National Anthem played.
A lot of people have an idea of what they think military people are like, but I'll tell you they're some of the best, most supportive people in the world. I've never a met a military veteran who has thought something "can't" be done, and they don't really let you get away with thinking like that either. If you say you want to do something, they'll tell you to go do it - and they won't listen to any reasons you might come up with about why you "can't". Every single one I've ever met have told me that if you want something bad enough you'll get it. They're the type of people who change how you look at life, and what you think you can do. I would highly recommend every person spend some time with our veterans before the chance to get to know them is gone. It's a priceless opportunity that won't always be there.
Wow. You got animated. That speech sparked something in you. That smile you gave at the end of the speech was huge.
That is the opening scene from the movie "Patton," starring George C. Scott as Gen. Patton, and Karl Malden as Gen. Omar Bradley (they named tanks after both of them). The video clips are from about every war movie ever. It is a great rainy Saturday movie, as it is about as long as Lawrence of Arabia.
Another fun fact...pattons grandfather was a Confederate soldier.
That was Puller's grandfather, too...
@@george217 and president Harry S. Truman...lot of Confederate ties.
@@russlanedixieland Related to Patrick Henry as well...
@@george217 great history
He lived next to John S. Mosby when he was young. The ex- Confederate Calvary leader used to sit and tell the young Patton with countless stories of the Civil war.
this is an actual speech of gen george s patton, but it's from the wwii movie "patton" starring the actor george c scott. i'm an american woman who saw this in the theater with a group of friends when it first came out. the theater was full of yells, cheers, clapping, and such during the entirety of the speech. if you have a chance, you should watch the movie in it's entirely. i think you'd really enjoy it. following are a couple of notes. the louisiana remark refers to ft polk, where they had been stationed and which was built on what had been a cow pasture. he was in charge of the 3rd army div that plowed through the germans and brought relief to the airborn div trapped at bastogne in the battle of the bulge. finally, at one pt he was in a hosp visiting heros who'd been injured in combat and he found out that a couple of men who were there were being what he felt was coddled because they had "combat fatigue", he got furious! they were in the midst of heros who'd had limbs blown off and such, and in his his anger he slapped those man/men. as punishment for that, he/his div were not allowed to participate in what they should have d-day and some other important things later. makes sense that he shouldn't go around slapping privates or whatever, but he was such a brilliant gen, really never losing, and it was pretty stupid and made for much greater loss of allied lives to "punish him" by putting montgomery in charge of some stuff that should have gone to patton (and monty really, really fu*ked it all up royally).
Funny thing, the 101st airborne troops who were holding Bastogne say they never needed rescuing.
@@billledbetter7978 well, we always knew their judgement was suspect since they make a habit of jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. ;-)
This was the speech at the beginning of the movie from 1970 "Patton", starring George C. Scott. I watch this movie at least 4 times a year. I have also been to Luxembourg where Patton is buried with his 3rd Army. I have always been of the opinion that they should have never taken his position from him. He had the right idea and wasn't afraid of being "politically incorrect". A lot of the rest of the clips you saw were all from movies made about the wars. If you have never seen that movie, please watch. He was one of the greatest Generals we ever had.
Hard core Pat!!! No sissy there!!
That was actually George C. Scott portraying Patton
But it was the actual speech Patton gave to the 3rd army
Same speech, better voice.
@@clintlarvenz2570 It was a cleaned up version of it actually. There was a lot of racist language in the original speech against the japanese.
@@aaronburdon221 Not surprising it was literally in children's cartoons at the time too.
@@clintlarvenz2570 true enough. :)
that speech was the opening scene of the movie Patton. the role of George Patton was played by George C Scott
Patton may be my favorite military figure. Or at least one of them. I love his down-to-earth, plain spoken style of addressing his men. Yet he was extremely well educated and could discuss many topics in depth. This speech is from the movie "Patton" with George C Scott - a somewhat fictionalized accounting of his fall from grace.
Patton's ancestors fought for the Royalists in the English Civil War
That was awesome! You have to love General Patton.
Great speech!!! Really really inspirational!! Thanks for the reaction brother!! I'm really glad I found your channel and subscribed.
An elderly lady, down the street, about 20 years ago, knew Patton before the war. Her husband was an officer working for Patton. She had many stories about him and she talked directly to Patton many times during Officer's Club parties. I WISH I had written them all down.
My family has fought in every ear since the French and Indian war. I enjoy and APPRECIATE your videos. God bless.
Being a history buff/nerd I have spent thousands of dollars on training, books, and research and out of the Top 50 Battlefield Commanders in world history I have General George Smith Patton ranked #7 and the greatest commander in United States history
I always heard of Douglas MacArthur. He won a serious amount of battles too
@@TheDonsChannel Yes ‘Big Shogun’ MacArthur was about as hard nosed and brilliant as Patton. I have MacArthur ranked 19th. If you would like my full rankings I can email them to you. You’ll be astonished at the history
@@treystevenson9872 yeah that sounds fantastic.
@@treystevenson9872 which generals were the best in US History?... I’m a history buff too... in fact I’m a history major. Patton was a great general. Then Nimitz was really good for our navy with the Pacific campaign.
@@DGraham9721 give me an email address and I’ll send the entire 50 rankings and the 76 Honorable Mentions
Gen. Patton gave that speech in England. He was addressing the U.S. 3rd Army just days before the Normandy invasion. He was a great American General and patriot. He died in Germany from a car accident just a few months after the war ended.
I so love your videos Don Father. That was George C. Scott as Patton in the movie by the same name. Having watched your videos, I truly believe you would love the movie and it would be a great reaction. Thanks for you what you do. You know about and love America more than so many of the people actually here
There was a press meeting with US troops in Afghanistan. The reporters walked around the room and interviewed each specialist. One reporter approached a dark, sullen figure in the corner polishing his rifle with obsession. "What do you do, sir?" the reporter asked. "I'm a travel agent" the mysterious man replied not looking up, still polishing his rifle with vigor. "You don't look much like a travel agent". The soldier looked up and held his shiny gun up for inspection. "They want to visit Allah...and this is their ticket". He was a sniper.
My grandpa (US Army 82nd Airborne) had a framed picture of Patton on a table in his living room until he died, age 91. Said he would follow Patton into battle with a plastic spoon.
Patton is the greatest man ever, born into war. Am I the only one who saw all of the movies on here
Patton is a legend. His grit helped us win that war, I truly believe that. 🇺🇸
My grandfather served in Patton's 3rd Army. Patton is one of only 2 men that my grandfather ever consistently cussed about.
My father and uncle were one of those that did not have to say that he shoveled s*** in New Orleans during WW2. They were combat wounded veterans of the 109th. Inf. Reg't., 28 Infantry Division. They fought in five major battles in Europe. Including the Hurtgen Forest and the Battle of the Bulge.
That is George C Scott from the movie "Patton." I'm not sure if that it was an actual speech. Patton was the General of the 1st Armor Division. They are the one that when the 101st Airborne division was surrounded at Bastogne, and had saying "Nuts" to the German leader asking for their surrender. When Patton heard that he was 107 miles away and had been told to hold. That's where the whole bit about holding came from. Literally turned Left and made an end run all the way up and attacked the Germans from the rear and saved the 101st.
I'm surprised, considering your content, that you've just eclipsed 100k subs. Your kick-ass attitude epitomizes what you call "the American psyche." Again, nicely done, sir.
I've sent some of your videos to our Son who's in the Army. He's here stationed in the USA & Loves your Reactions to videos!
Thank you very much
Patton made this speech for real, right before D-Day. It was even more colorful than this brilliant performance by George C Scott.
My favorite Speech by General George Patton or any other general for that matter
If bravery is a trait which knows not fear, then I have never met a brave man. A brave man is one who despite the fear will focus on the mission & continue the fight to make sure no others from his unit get wounded or killed.
I just love this movie. George C. Scott did an amazing job!
Love this man he is a real American hero not some stupid celebrity or football team
This man was actor George C Scott.
God bless you Sir. 💙❤️
This feature hearing is from Patton but is being spoken by George c Scott from the movie Patton. There's no mistaking George c Scott's voice trust me. Besides Patton actually had a fairly high pitched voice that he hated
If Ike would have told Montgomery no on the market garden operation Patton could have most likely pushed all the way to Berlin and the EU would be totally different today.
If Ike had said, "yes"; to Patton. Hr probably wouldn't have stopped until he got to Moscow's doorstep.
There also was/ is hotel in garmisch Germany. Stayed there a few times and remember his painting. We where in Bumbholder, 76-79, Nuremburg 88-91 and Wurzburg 94-96. GOD I LOVED LIVING THERE!
More fun facts: Patton was on the American Olympic team for pistol marksmanship.
When he was a child, he lived next to Ex- Confederate leader John S. Mosby. He would tell the young Patton of great battles of the Civil war.
I love your videos!! Thank you!! I wanted to tell you that there’s a video about a US Veteran who was seen on camera as he delivered packages to a home. An American Flag blew down behind him to the ground. His response shows the HEART of man who served and loved his Country! It is easy to find! What he struggles to do, because of previous injuries, is really and truly inspirational!! A not to be missed experience!!
Speech given by George C. Scott portraying George S. Patton. Cannot confirm is actual. Can Honor it is AWESOME!
We need more Generals like Patton and fewer like the weaklings we have now who never shot a gun. Patton's son said that George C Scott nailed playing his dad.
Patton was a true PATRIOT😎
George S Patton was one hell of a General -- he commanded the 2nd Armored Division at Fort Hood, Texas.
I really appreciate your insight as a person who has served! You bring a personal perspective and I respect that. Thank you for your service!
Now you need to see Patton, great movie I own it.
That is George C.Scott who played George Patton in the movie Patton
Watch the film to get the picture of the man. George C Scott was such a great actor. There's a brilliant scene where he takes his adjutant to an ancient site in the Mediterranean. He tells of an ancient battle from two thousand years ago and says he was there, and he's always been there... Amazing, he absolutely believed he was the eternal warrior, a deep understanding of war through the ages...
They played the original recording by Gen George S. Patton for us in Basic Training, this was taken from the movie Patton, I highly recommend watching it. Patton was to Americans like Montgomery was to the British and the movie shows Patton and Monty clashing more than once.
