If it were not for the movie and George C. Scott's portrayal, this great hero would be unknown today.

True. One interesting inaccurracy was Patton's attitude towards those who served under him. In his book, Bradley described Patton as loyal to those below him to a fault, unwilling to fire nonproductive officers below him. There is a great quote from Patton on this subject: "There is a great deal of talk about loyalty from the bottom to the top. Loyalty from the top down is even more necessary and is much less prevalent. One of the most frequently noted characteristics of great men who have remained great is loyalty to their subordinates." - George Patton

Many years ago, I had the honor of receiving an award from GOA Bradley a few months before he passed away.
