    The scene where Patton is in the hospital shows actual outside footage of the then-130th Station Hospital in Heidelberg (actually Rohrbach at the time, in a former German signal base), where he was treated and died, without the more modern clinic building that would be in the way of the shot today. There is a plaque in the hospital beside the door of the room in which he died.

    General Patton once cautioned us about the challenges we face in our current circumstances. His warnings resonate strongly today, as they emphasize the importance of identifying the true adversary in any conflict. Many people hold differing opinions on this matter, arguing that misidentifying our enemy can lead to misguided efforts and wasted resources in our fight. It’s crucial to remember his insights; understanding who we are truly up against is vital for effective strategy and achieving our objectives.

      I understand how the glory of taking Berlin would have helped Patton's legacy. But not worth the 100,000 plus troops which would have died in the process. The Soviets took it at a great cost. Plus if Patton had marched to Berlin, he would have had to hand over huge territory of East Germany back to the Soviets for occupation.

      Stupid. He was in the army. He was dismissed from his prevous poistion. He could be retired from the army at any time. It would just take a piece of paper. Patton was free to go into politics anytime he wanted. To assasinate someone who was now redundant and harmless would be stupid and pointless beyond words. To do it with a truck would be ludicrous, since it would take months of hanging around in the truck awaiting the chance. The whole idea is stupid beyond words, and as I see u hv 7 likes, that proves there are at least 7 morons in the world.

      En réalité George Patton n' a jamais été romain mais carthaginois mort en 183 BC . En 1943, sur les vestiges de l' ancienne Carthage il décrit à des historiens comment Scipion l' Ancien avait pénétré dans la ville avec ses 3 légions et détruit hommes , femmes et enfants .
      Ls historiens furent surpris de détails aussi précis et tout corespondait précisément .
      Comment savez vous tout cela lui demandèrent ils ? - Je gisais là mort dit George . Il était Hanibal .
      Grace à ses connaissances du terrain lors de ses vies passées , il fut le plus grand général US .
      il voulait continuer à poursuivre les bolcheviques et sa tête fut mise à mort par le KGB .
      Par 3 fois fois on voulu l' assassiner , la dernière fois en sabottant sa berline .
      Nul ne sait si il s' agit de la CIA ou le KGB .
      Il parait qu ' il s' est remis de son accident et son état clinique était bon ...
      On suspecte un empoisonnement
      Patton disait tout haut ses pensées et dérangeait .
