can we have a thread about this magnificent war god?
He wasn't that good and overly reckless
Patton was said to have believed in reincarnation and that he himself was once a French general under Napoleon.

>Patton died December 1945
>trump born June 1946
This is too spooky
>>1217957
The more I research him the more convinced I am he is just a meme.
I don't think he was reckless at all. I think he was balls-to-the-wall warrior in an era which had long forgotten the mentality it took to significantly wreck opponents.
The only confrontation, in a career that spanned both 20th century world wars, he categorically "lost" was a guerilla incursion to release PoWs early in the Battle of the Bulge, and that was a few hundred ( ? ) men. (He wasn't present, but it was under his order)
>>1217985
I don't see it.
>>1217985
I get seriously rustled seeing any comparison of that fat shyster being compared to Patton
>>1218018
>Killed by the shills he unknowingly fought for, he's back with a vengeance and ready to tear down the establishment that betrayed him
I've heard he was actually a really shitty general. How true is this?
>>1218057
>will make America great again
>not Patton's greatest wish
>>1218042
He really only got away with it because he was on the winning, offensive side.
>>1218062
I think a lot of it stems from rivalries with other generals. I remember Patton being considered a very aggressive commander that conflicted with his fellow generals such as Montgomery.
>>1217957
Overrated, like most American generals.

>>1218062
I guess, after you die (hopefully in your time) you can have that conversation with his opponents.
>>1218076
Because... he was only a commander during the end of the WW2 European theatre?
k, thanks for your input.
>>1218116
Point is, he's vastly overrated and would be a forgotten character in the annals of history if it wasn't for fanboys and movies grossly exaggerating his achievements.
>>1218122
I think you might be high. Have you read about Sicily or Tunisia?
>>1217957
THAT'S NOT PATTON. That's an actor portraying Patton. If you provide the actor's resume or service record, then perhaps we can discuss his Godliness, but we don't even know who the fuck this guy is.

Definitive proof life does not begin at conception.
>>1218829
Trump was born exactly 25 weeks after Patton died.
>>1218869
Right, which means he was conceived 15 weeks before...
My grandfather served under Patton. He got himself transferred as soon as he could because he was certain he would die under Patton's command. He hated the man, called him the worst kind of idiot who had no regard for the lives of his troops.
>>1218878
Assuming Trump was in the womb for the average 40 weeks, I believe we've just confirmed that first trimester fetuses aren't living.
I heard his used to shoot at enemy planes with his revolver is that true?
>>1218879
Yeah, my great-uncle served with him in Sicily and said similar things.
He's a pretty big meme.
>>1218879
Patton was a WW1 General to heart. No tactics, pure aggression.
Remember that time Patton rigged a war game to discredited mechanized warfare, to suck up to his superiors, and then threw out the evidence on his end because he knew that was a low and detestable maneuver?

Wasn't that Magnificent?
>>1217985
Patton and Trump would be best friends too. They are perfect for eachother
>>1218981
Do you have a real source?
>>1218981
>rigged a war game
All wargames are rigged anon. You'd know this if you had any semblance of military background.
