CLIP DESCRIPTION:
As Patton (George C. Scott) and Sir Arthur (John Barrie) discuss air supremacy, the headquarters are ironically attacked by German planes. During the attack, Patton is fed up and takes the matter into his own hands.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
In 1943 North Africa, George Patton (George C. Scott) assumes command of (and instills some much-needed discipline in) the American forces. Engaged in battle against Germany's Field Marshal Rommel (Karl Michael Vogler), Patton drives back "The Desert Fox" by using the German's own tactics. Promoted to Lieutenant General, Patton is sent to Sicily, where he engages in a personal war of egos with British Field Marshal Montgomery (Michael Bates). Performing brilliantly in Italy, Patton seriously jeopardizes his future with a single slap. While touring an Army hospital, the General comes across a GI (Tim Considine) suffering from nervous fatigue. Incensed by what he considers a slacker, Patton smacks the poor soldier and orders him to get well in a hurry. This incident results in his losing his command-and, by extension, missing out on D-Day. In his final campaign, Patton leads the US 3rd Army through Europe. Unabashedly flamboyant, Patton remains a valuable resource, but ultimately proves too much of a "loose cannon" in comparison to the more level-headed tactics of his old friend Omar Bradley (Karl Malden). Patton won 7 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor for Scott, an award that he refused.

One of his aides was interviewed about this part of the film. His response was along the lines of "George never did that, although he would have if he had the chance."
I wonder if Molotov and Ribbentrop had a similar experience.
During a visit to Berlin after the signing of the nonaggression pact, Molotov offered a rare display of humor. While sitting in a bomb shelter during a British air raid--France and Britain had declared war on Germany after its invasion of Poland--Von Ribbentrop assured Molotov that “Britain is finished.”
“Then why are we in this shelter and whose bombs are those falling outside?” Molotov asked sarcastically.
I was gonna say lol
@@johnburns9634 Von Ribbentrop was right but his timing was off.
Paul Johnson I had read something similar
Yes, I believe that there are certain technical reasons to believe that this event didn't happen. At least not the way it's portrayed here.
"We were discussing air supremacy, Sir Arthur." As he nonchalantly put his glasses in his pocket. Superb!!

😀😀😀😀😂😂😂 Air Supremacy clip is still my favorite in the movie
He started firing too soon....
and they saved the cups of tea
I met veterans who fought under Patton in the 70s. They were all different than other vets. Most vets are proud of having served their country. These guys were proud of serving under Patton, while they served their country.
Might have felt different if they all knew how he treated soldiers suffering from traumatic mental disorders such as PTSD aka shell shock.
@@jakeman025 It would have filtered through the ranks. Gossip spreads like a wildfire. Just shows how much they admired their commander.
@@Jermster_91 I highly doubt that. Those soldiers in the hospital especially in the psych ward are secluded. It’s protocol to separate them from the general population because it can be infectious. There stories didn’t get out until afterwords.
It's hard to imagine a general trying to win a war against a determined enemy would be so unwilling to let people go home because their feelings are hurt. Let's reward the coward with a trip home while the ones who didn't abandon their comrades have to keep fighting and being "traumatized". Is "ok zoomer" a thing yet? Enjoy your freedom while it lasts, cowards.
MethinX Patton died 1940's.
I'd initially had no idea that the scene with Thrawn shooting at the TIE Defender in Star Wars Rebels was a reference to this. Now that I know, I find it amusing, awesome...and fascinating.
Ha I knew the reference with Thrawn i bet that was a homage to Patton from the writers of Rebels.
vulcanhumor just realized that
I heard Autobots firing.
@Hunter Nowicki Ah i see that makes sense.
You know the tie fighter was a B-17/24 ball turret with some screen doors slapped on the sides.
Even if it's apocryphal, the sight of Patton firing his sidearm at a pair of planes as bullets dig up the ground between his legs is absolutely - metal.
Or Stainless Steel balls.
That’s a tremendous word .. apocryphal! 👍
He was an Olympic Pistol Shooter. He was denied the gold medal because he “missed” one shot. His contention was, “it went cleanly through a previous hole”.
don't care how metal you are, if one of those rounds hits you it's gonna ruin your day
@@Raooka I didn't say he was bulletproof, however I'm inclined to believe he was. Going back to his service in WWI, the man was simply estranged from fear.
Scott’s portrayal of Patton was so overwhelming that people assumed that he was Patton. His performance was outstanding but the one flaw and it was a big one, his gravely voice was nothing like Patton’s actual high pitched squeal.
It's easy to find speeches given by Patton here on RUclips and the difference in voices is considerable. Gravelly baritone versus tenor.
Scott sounds the way Patton should have sounded.
Scott was more Patton than Patton!!.!!!!
General Patton would surely have approved of his portrayal.
Bon
Von Manstein had a squeaky voice,despite his august appearance
My Grandfather on my Dad's side was a truck driver in Patton's Third Army. It was the thing he was most proud of in life, "including my Father and Aunt." His eyes would light up anytime General Patton was mentioned. He was buried with his Patches. I miss that man.
He may have known my grandfather who spoke to me a great deal about the war he was in. Having then even saw documentary’s knowing what was going to happen next no thanks to him.
Salute to your grandfather. From one veteran to another.
The most amazing part of this scene is at 1:02. The man driving the Jeep does not have a roll bar or any other type of protection and he purposely rolls the Jeep over on top of himself. You can see him turn the wheel into the building and begin to lean over and the Jeep begins to roll. He tucks himself on the seat and hangs on. This was before CGI and that's a real stunt with an actual crashing vehicle rolling on top of the driver.
That was the dangerous part of the charm behind those kind of scenes, you KNEW there was a living person inside or nearby the event and therefore, you FELT that classy sensation of your balls crauling into your neck. Today we asume there is CGI or green screens by default and there is nothing nore than a "oh look at the flames" response.
I have a Patton story I want to tell. I tell it everywhere because I'd like it to be remembered. In my home town, maybe 15-20 years ago now, I served on a committee with a World War II veteran named Bucky Weller. Bucky was captured during the war and was personally liberated by General Patton. Patton was striding through the POW camp, passing out cigars to the newly liberated G.I.s when he came to Bucky. He handed him a cigar, and Bucky said, "Thanks, General, but I don't smoke." Patton looked at him and said, "You do now!" I have a book called "The Patton Papers", and I looked up the date that Bucky said he was liberated. Sure enough, Patton mentioned he was liberating POWs that same day in his diary- but unfortunately, no mention of Bucky or the cigars.
That’s a really cool story. Especially as, according to other accounts I’ve read, Patton considered POWs to be cowards.
If they remade that scene today, everything would explode and Patton would have shot down that plane.
@david b What are you talking about lol
menckencynic **Black Lesbian Woman Assistant**
In an issue of Mad Magazine he did just that. With spit.
DarthBricksEmpire *and half of the army would be women*
No, no, no! He would first be hanging on to the outside of the aircraft!
My Dad's old boss! My Dad signed up in 1944 to tour Europe and General Patton was his tour guide! 🇺🇸❤🇺🇸
Great story, Kelly. 🇺🇸
Lmao you just be German
I was a civilian employee of the US Army National Guard during the late 1960's. I met several men who had served under General Patton. Every one said what an SOB he was, but that they would willingly have marched through Hell for him. And did.
After the war, many captured German officers said it was Patton that they most feared among our generals.
@@Gablesman888 One of the lines late in the film largely said it all "the absence of war will kill him". It's been said he wanted to go to the Pacific front and be a part of that.
@@paulmauer9405 Rot in Hades, verminous troll.
RIP George C. Scott (October 18, 1927 - September 22, 1999), aged 71
You will be remembered as a legend.
Gee he died young
He was only 43 here? Damn. I guess they made him look older.
I met a Canadian who went down to the U.S. and joined the U.S. Army in the 1930’s. He rose in rank and ended up becoming one of George Patton’s aides in Africa and Sicily and Europe. He only had good things to say about Patton. On a trip back to his old home in Canada in the early 1960’s, he gave me an ammo box full of maps of the world.
How exactly did Patton move around when he had to carry such huge nuts.
wheelbarrows
GOOD one!!
That's why they developed the Patton tank 😉
They made him an specialdesigned suspensoar, reinforce with steel 😁
Well he had a few screws loose in the head so when they fell out the weight kinda balanced out for him.
That tank driver just really hated that fountain I guess
It's amazing those planes were able to fly that low with the gravitational pull of Patton's testicles affecting the lower half of the Northern Hemisphere.
The pilots nearly broke their arms keeping the planes airborne.
@Steve Price
Thank you. Best laugh I've had in awhile
You win the internet with that comment sir!
BWAHAHA
Thats a pretty good one
If I saw my commanding general firing his pistol at an enemy plane like this, I'd probably follow him to hell. He clearly does not give a F***.
then he gets shot, your unit loses its commander and you are fucked till the next one learns wtf is going on. Wars can be lost in such situations.
but it is Patton.
he'd probably order you to follow him to hell anyways. xD
As a veteran, if I saw my commanding general firing his pistol at an enemy plane like this, I'd know we're properly screwed...
Agreed, I would be thinking our commander is going to get us all killed. Fortunately Patton wasn't really that stupid.
Patton was the man, but how about those soldiers staying atop those tanks blazing away with those machine guns?
If the machine gunners tried to leave their tanks and the German aircraft were going to bomb them, they'd be caught in the blast. If they stayed and failed to shoot them down, they'd be caught in the blast. Patton left an area of relative safety to try to shoot it down and almost got shot to bits in the process.
Uhhhh ... it's a MOVIE !!!
Tankers were ballsy, but I’m sure having a .50 caliber gives someone confidence!
Those are Cold war Tanks
@@nickirmen6671 I'd call that ingenuity. If given the choice I'd take tanks from the future in to battle as well.
General, you'll see no more German planes.
German bombers fly right over Patton's office.
You were discussing air supremcey Sir Aurther?
that chicken was put in that scene for a reason
SAS must have missed the airfield those German bombers came from. They pretty much wrecked the rest.
@@rredhawk this never happened in real life.
@ It actually did, except for Patton shooting at the airplanes with his pistol. The Arthur is wrong too - Arthur Conningham was sent to Africa on Arthur Tedder's orders to deal with the German air superiority. It was Tedder who was present at the meeting when the Germans bombed them.
godstomper the chicken made the whole scene
I like how Patton's impact on discipline triggers a salute in the middle of an air attack.
"Lead me, follow me, or get the hell out of my way!" Truly one of the finest Generals in the history of warfare.
No not even in the top100
George C. Scott and George Patton. A legend playing a legend in a time of legends. A goddamn classic. 🇺🇸
"If I find the Germans flying those planes, I'd give each of them a medal."
yeah they cut off right when he said that..lol
I think he said "Nazi sunza bitches"
1958Shemp Pattons was a loon but a leader of killers and they hated him because he would sacrifice everything for Glory A good leader of the mob the hole but you can't put negativetity in a asshole and grow dayzeys the only dayzeys they will push up it's from a pine box!!!!
to "nobody nowhere"
General Patton had better results and less casualties than any other general in WW2. Thanks to people like him can clowns like you say you stupid remarks. Have a nice day.
I came here for that quote! Damn, what a great film.
*Sir Arthur's next line (which he didn't get to say because the Luftwaffe turned up unexpectedly):* "And you will see no less German planes, either."
British General: "I promise you General, you will see no more German planes"
German bomber pilot: "I'm about to end this man's whole career"
Well Air Marshall...brits dont have Air generals
@@Damo2690 bruh, I'm a meme man, not a military man
@@Killzoneguy117 your hilarious
British General: "Those must be _italian_ planes, General Patton."
German bomber pilot: here, hold my Hefeweizen...
I was a toddler when me and my family's seen this at the drive-in. I think I slept through the whole movie, now I'm going to have to get this on DVD.
Patton could be a real bastard, but he EARNED the nickname "Old Blood and Guts." It's stunts like this that become legendary with the retelling.
My best friend's dad (an my friend as well) served in Patton's Third Army and actually spoke to him, so I guess I'm separated from a great man and hero by one degree!
I live in Spokane, WA. Believe it or not that I worked for a man in his early 60's that lived here until recently when he moved to Phoenix who's Father was Hitler's Personal driver!
"Patton" is one of the great war movies of the 1965-1970 era. I was 12 years old when I went to the theater when the movie first came out. Also saw most other movies of that era at the same theater. I was a young buff of the theaters then. God bless!
For those of you who have ever wondered what pistol Patton is shooting, it is a Remington Model 51 in .380ACP.
August Reign Close, it's a Colt Model 1908 Hammerless in .380 ACP.
Nice, a .380, i'm surprised those German bombers didn't go down.
with ivory handled grips
@James Bartow ,actually they were Ivory gripped revolvers, a colt single action army in 45 long colt ,nicked plated I think, engraved, with Patton's initials G.S.P. ( George S. Patton.) On the right hand side, a carved eagle clutching a shield on the left hand side of the grips. The other revolver he was known to carry was a Smith and Wesson Registered Magnum ( precursor to the model 27) all made to order at first. 3 & 1/2 inch barrel, blued finish, grip adapter can't remember the maker, ed mcgivern gold bead front sight , Ivory grips with G.S.P added later 357 Magnum caliber. As well a Remington model 51, or colt model 1908 ( same as the model 1903, but 380 acp. rather than 32 acp. ) the other had his initials on the grips. He had two Ivory handed colt single action army revolvers at one time but he gave one to a friend. The one he kept all his life was actually used in action during the US army punitive Expedition into Mexico in 1916. Worth reading about. Though he used a colt model 1911 during fighting on the western front in world war I.
Alex Fogg you know your stuff
"Get back in here, George, we need a Corps commander, not a casualty."
I'm sorry general, but I think it's too late for that now.
I was a young boy watching this with pops they don't make actors like this anymore what a great classic dad is gone I'm still here 62 years old in 2023 movies now can't compare
Patton was exactly the kind of man we needed then. A true American hero.
Best field commander in the history of warfare
By God, by God, that's ENOUGH!!
Like he about to pull his belt off and whip the kids.😆
Thought is was "Like hell, by God, that's enough!"
That vase must have been very valuable to him.
Here is a man who was not fast because his nuts were so large they had their own gravitational pull
"COME ON YA BASTARDS! TAKE A SHOT AT ME RIGHT AT THE NOSE!"
My dad traveled for work. We were at an American base in Seoul and this movie was massively popular in the compound theater. When it began with Patton walking on the stage, the entire audience jumped to attention, civilians and kids also. Can't picture that happening these days.
Call to order for the display of the flag. It had nothing to do with a portrayal of Patton.
Patton would slap Milley senseless with his glove. Biden, too.
*"GODDAMN COWARDS!!!"*
He thought he was playing the same character he was playing in Dr Strangelove.
Excellent movie and excellent performance by George C. Scott. Just finished it this morning.
0:34 Even the teacups went for cover under the table.
That stunt driver at 1:03 was pretty gutsy. He rolled that truck with no roof or roll bar on to its top with him underneath.
Patton...FUCKING STUD!!!!
Just a vignette on how George Patton confronted his worst fears -- staring them straight in the face and daring them to defeat him.
Remember, Patton had just spawned on that map and hadn't had time to pick up the rocket launcher or minigun due to the extensive cutscene with the British. If he'd been able to "x" out he could've at least shot one down with the plasma rifle or BFG.
The cutscenes always interfere with the action.
This scene drives my spirit.
One of the best scenes from the movie. Scott did a great job as Patton.
0:35...wow, bombers were dropping chickens
lol
Best scene of the movie. That is Patton. We need him again to get America shaped up. My favorite expression “That’s enough”
Look at the pattern of the tea cups as they all line up in a straight line underneath the table.
Patton was an expert shot with a pistol, even competing in the Olympics.
He came close to winning the Pentathalon.
@@wryanddry2266 It has been argued he would have done better but he completely missed 2 targets (which was his best event). they couldn't tell if a bullet went through the same hole as a previous shot so had he been scored with modern technology I think he would have won gold or at least medaled.
@@pauldarling330 Or, even if his overall scores were somehow poor, be commended for the fact that he fired two shots so impeccably.
One of my favorite scenes!
I promise you one thing General, you will see no more German planes...
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"You were discussing air supremacy, Marshall?"
@david b Well, who asked you?
Quick close your eyes general!
That WAS the joke...
Now that's how a general should be!
+oilersridersbluejays Eh. I agree but I don't want my generals dead.
+oilersridersbluejays this actually happened patton used his 44 magnum to shoot at the planes
+Travis Kopplinger a pistol is no Match for a plane dude
It's more of a reflection of him, his anger, his personality and it's a message sent to the troops. He didn't think he'd shoot down a plane with pistol. But after dealing with British bull, he may as well try because that's how stupid the scenario was.
+Stephen Cogan what I'm saying in my opinion is that even though, the pistol won't take down the plane but it might show the soldiers to fight back the enemy
Best quote ever. "Come you bastards take a shot at me right in the nose"
Patton was like "GOD DAMN GERMAN AIRPLANES! FINE! I DO IT MYSELF!" *Pulls out handgun*
The Greatest American to ever exist in Gods Green Earth, A 42 year old Irish American who grew up in Ireland watching this film with my father, must have e watched this Film 200 times, had it on Tape VHS , I’ve read every book on “Old blood and Guts” it a disgrace the way he was treated RIP In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti
How many people know that in World War I Patton led one of the first tank battalions into battle. He rode on the outside, behind the turret. They wired a radio in to the tank commander so he could direct. He and MacArthur had nerve and balls that summed up a lot of that generation.
Do you mean ww2 or ww1?
Ww1 tanks only had inside turrets
@@jacksonpettit4690 And the tanks weren't fitted with radio.
Tanks were first used in 1916 by the British Army on The Somme. The US didn’t join in until 1917.
The first mass use of the tank was at Cambrai in 1917, again by the British. They were not mechanically reliable at this stage and few in number.
Yeah!MacArthur and Patton--both the biggest showboaters ever to wear uniform!🤢🤮
I do believe that Patton competed in the 1912 Olympic Games in the
Fencing, Equestrian and Pistol.
It was an event called "military pentathlon" which consisted of 5 events: Fencing (saber, iirc), Steeplechase, Pistol, mile footrace, and either long jump or javelin. Patton placed 4th.
What is humorous about those Olympic games, Patton came in 4th over all, but Patton contested the scoring results of the Pistol portion. He contended that he shot several times and the bullet went through the previous hole, and the judges could not believe it. He was very well known as an excellent pistol Markman, which is obvious to compete at that level. Patton may very well have been correct.
@Floyd Vaughn You are correct sir. He also did many other things that are not well known. Patton recommended the Army adopt the chassis used on the Christi tank as the best design. The Army didn't do it. That chassis design was used for the Russian T34 tank. Patton wrote a paper in I believe 1939 when stationed in Hawaii warning about a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese, it was ignored. In War Games in Louisiana, Patton's men captured the opposing General, Hugh Drum. The only time that has ever occurred. That was the basis of the same thing done in the movie The Dirty Dozen. Patton went to Indio and set up an entire dessert tank warfare program and developed armored breakout and pursuit. Patton's career was marked by brilliance, but he was disliked by a lot of his peers and most of his superiors. To a large degree Patton was not judged on his abilities and results but by personality and politics.
@Floyd Vaughn Again, you are quite right. There was no half way with Patton, especially in military matters. When Patton competed in the Olympics, he ran a one mile race, he pushed himself so hard he collapsed after crossing the finish line, and was taken to the hospital., no half way with Patton. In practice, prior to the pistol competition, Patton scored nearly all perfect scores. He used his .38 caliber service pistol, most others used target .22's
During the match he was scored with several complete misses. He explained to the judges, that the holes in the target were larger than .22's and grouped so tight he was shooting through the existing hole, The judges disagreed, and Patton ceded to their judgment. Patton very well may have been correct. The man spoke French and read German, and was highly educated. An amazing individual on all counts
@@6handicap604 Based on the reading that I have done over the years I am as certain as I can be that he was right. And perhaps the most convincing evidence of all is that Patton himself was such a man of honor that had he even considered it remotely possible that he missed the entire target, he would not dared have said a word.
I wish someone would post the clip where the soldier was trying to sleep. A classic...
My favorite George C Scott scene was when he was wrestling with the Soviet ambassador in the Pentagon, to which President Muffly (Peter Sellers) yells "Gentlemen, there's no fighting in the war room!"
In Dr. Strangeglove
I remember watching this classic as a kid one my fathers vhs collection
I like how the tea cups all land perfectly upright under the table at first then in the next shot they're somewhat messed up.
I worked with an old gent at mcdonnell douglas in long beach California. We got into a conversation about his ww2 days. I could see him reminiscing. All he would say is Patton tried to kill them. This guy was so fun to work with, but I think he really believed what he said. War in WW2 must have been hell.
0:27 "Starting Monday"
1:32 "My God that's enough!"
Great performance through. Scott was a giant whatever he did.
Awww.... the next few seconds were the best part of the clip.
Its so wonderful to see a movie with actual tanks, weapons, and explosions and not a bunch of CGI crap.
Yeah...wrong era tanks, weapons with foley sound effects over their real sounds, and explosions not 1/10 of what a real Luftwaffe bomb would make. Don't paint all CGI or modern special effects with the same brush. Saving Private Ryan had more realistic vehicles, sound effects, and explosions...not to mention battle injuries.
@@rikk319 We can thank Spielberg who is quite the historian fanatic when it comes to making time period movies. Saving Private Ryan is without a doubt one of his greatest masterpiece, along with the likes of Lincoln and War Horse (love the fact that Spielberg had a company completely rebuilt a 1/1 replica of a Mk IV Tank that now donated to the Bovington Tank Museum).
Yup I agree, Flags of Our fathers should have been filmed on location with real Japanese soldiers firing at real US marines, with real bullets, and they spend $100's of millions to rent the ships and boats, burn through thousands of real ship shells to make a movie. I give Patton a pass for the 'Tiger' tanks, because the only one left is in the British Museum and Fury got permission to use it, regardless of what you think of that movie. In SPR, they put Tiger turrets on T-34 chassis for their 'Tiger' tanks, it was not until later that I found out and started to notice.
@@rikk319 unlike Battle of the Bulge, I never found vehicles bothersome in Patton. Patton intended more as a sweeping, panoramic film than Private Ryan. And the aerial bombs would possibly fit the German twin-engine bombers carrying a series of 220 lbs bombs that they did sometimes.
Maybe the film is so well made that I let some things go by.
@rikk319 true but did you know all the tanks are the same tank. The German and American tanks were all m48 Patton tanks.
What a great movie, one of my faves as a kid and still is.
Me when i hear birds chirping while I'm trying to go to sleep
Somnus
If that Jeep only had a roll bar that guy might have survived.
We need more like him now days !
"You were discussing air supremacy Sir Arthur." lol
We need more generals like this
We need more men like this.
The movie was made 47 years ago.
Tell that statement to the men and woman in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Back when murica just bomb and killed everything. Back when bombing and killing everything actually worked.
A whole lot of dead men were like this
'I promise you General, you will see no more German planes.'
Hold my beer.
Watching PATTON on television was challenging---I was sitting next to my late Dad, who'd served under General Patton in various commands and was NOT a fan. Just as well I'd seen the film in theatrical release; I spent most of the broadcast keeping an eye on Pop's blood pressure. I'd say thirty years worth of unresolved issues came up in a BIG hurry for my late father...
theodore williams
What issues did he have with him? That sounds really interesting.
Love watching this movie. One of my favorite generals along with vinegar Joe Stillwell, Julius Cesar and Hannibal.
Check out General Belisaurius from Roman times also
I met Gen. of the Armies Omar Bradley in 1981, the last year of his life, at Fort Bliss, TX. He mentioned that he is hopefully the last US general to command a division where the enemy has air superiority. He stopped in mid sentence and said, "Don't do this."
absolute mad man. I love him for it
1:32 my grandpa when there’s a family argument
01:34 "Now that's enough," Patton states as he pulls out the 45. Patton had cajones. And cajones is what it takes!!
Exactly!
These scenes, and more proves you can have a masterpiece of a movie without showing gore and body parts being blown out like saving private ryan!, it's not necessary, just focus on the acting is all you need.
Love this movie! It’s a classic!
They forgot to add that Patton said he would give them a medal for that
@ 2:13 the face he is making firing a 45 caliber sidearm at a heavily armored bomber is priceless
Pretty sure that's not a .45.
My husband's father, Frank Roman Petoski Sr. fought under Patton. On a convoy his vehicle, a Half-track broke down with a flat, stopping the convoy. Patton pulls up in a jeep and proceeded to cuss out my father-in-law shouting "Get that sonofabitchin' jeep off the road!!! You're slowing down my convoy!!" Frank Sr. managed to get the half-track to the side into the mud out of the way. Patton's convoy moved on!! Eventually they succeeded in the march toward Berlin.
Awesome movie. Awesome story. Old blood and guts. 💪🏻🙌🏻
US bomber crews typically flew 25 bombing missions. The Germans had no set limit and some crews flew into the hundreds, gaining a lot of skills in the process. If they lived long enough, they were retrained onto jets late in the war, with them being better at handling the new aircraft due to fighter pilots being a lot rougher in their maneuvers and used to throttling up faster. BTW, world record for most combat missions flown was by a guy named Rudel, over 2500.
@Dan M He took part in an international skiing competition without allowance for one of his legs being amputated below the knee. (There were no Paralympics then). He came in fourth.
Gotta love a commander who leads from the front and not the rear.
We need Patton 2021.
So here is where that scene from star wars rebels of Thrawn shooting a fighter comes from. Lol nice reference
No, it inspired Jack Nicolson's Joker shooting down Batman's Bat-plane!
"You will see no more German planes."
*German planes fly around Allied territory*
I like how the high altitude bombers are strafing and doing low level attacks LOL
Here we see George Patton employing the Carter Grayson method of handling things.
"We were discussing, uhh, air supremacy, Sir Arthur." Best line in the whole danged film.
I've often wondered how historically accurate this scene is.
I like "Get back down there son you're the only Son of a B!t*h in this headquarters who knows what the hell he is trying to do"
@Bill Slim Distinguish between lies, statements you merely disagree with, and ones you simply wish weren't true.
@Bill Slim That was a request on my part.
@Bill Slim Since you seem to be acting deliberately obtuse, I will be more specific. I challenge you to used specific examples and distinguish between lies, statements you merely disagree with, and statements you just wish weren't true.
@Bill Slim As I said, you are being deliberately obtuse.
before the Joker, there was Patton 2:05
Really neat scene. Love the command leadership. It appeared, to me, the hand gun used by General Patton was a Walther 380 semi-auto pistol. Really neat gun, carried one for years. Doubt that it would much damage to an airplane, but you have to admire the effort and intent.
Clyde Suckfinger He was firing a .380 Colt Model 1908 Hammerless pistol.
and does it have that many bullets in it?
@@jolenewilliamson1031 Hollywood guns never run out of bullets--Unless the script calls for it.
Ya think Tim Burton saw this and said “The Joker should have a moment like this.”
BOOOOM!!!
George S. Patton...I fucking SALUTE you, sir!!
A salute to the man who beat up the soldiers under his command who had PTSD -_-
+pytko3 how about you go up to a returned soldier and beat him up, then? I look forward to the results.
I've watched Patton several times before finding out in recent years that Cunningham was one of our ancestral names. So when Sir Arthur Cunningham was introduced, I just looked up to the ceiling and smiled.
Small problem. His surname was Coningham.
@@dovetonsturdee7033 no problem at all. There are various spellings. I should know. I'm on the Cunningham Facebook page where we get all the history of our clan. There's Conynghame, for example, as well as others.
“By God that’s enough!” Sounds like my grandaddy
It appears that both Patton and camels are bullet proof. :-D
Funny things happen in combat. Some folks just don't get hit.
