American General George Patton (1885–1945) was born on a ranch in San Gabriel, California.He perfected the art of lightning-fast tank maneuvers and unrestrained aggression, and he was the only Allied leader feared by the Germans. He was first given control over the 3rd Cavarly which was transfered into a tank division. Once Patton led his men in war games in Atlanta that were supposed to last for many days.  Patton's aggression and the enthusiasm of his men enabled him to win the games in just a day or two.  Patton inspired a unique loyalty and spirit in his men that enabled his troops to win quicker and with few casualties than everyone else. A german profile once said he could swear like a stable boy, but be as complimentary as a king. Patton unfortunatly had no part of the [[D-Day]] landings because of a incident with a frighten soldier from the front line.

In 1944, Patton's Third Army rolled through France, Belgium, Luxembourg and much of the Netherlands, routing the Germans everywhere.  The best the German army could do was turn and run.  The French citizens lined the streets of [[Paris]] to cheer the Americans when they arrived and freed the city. His most famous line was "Lets give 'em guts and blood boys!"

The movie has been interpreted as both anti-war and pro-miliary; Ebert judges the movie to be "a hard-line glorification of the military ethic, personified by a man whose flaws and eccentricities marginalized him in peacetime, but found the ideal theater in battle."
