GENERAL PATTON IMPERSONATOR TRIBUTE ARMY BIRTHDAY BALL

GENERAL PATTON IMPERSONATOR ACTOR booking through web site http://www.tbcstars.com and phone 757-589-0903
For over 16 years Tim Beasley has accurately and authentically portrayed the great "General Patton" for many US Army events, including being the opening speaker / entertainer for the US Army's most prestigious event, the Army's 230th Birthday Ball Celebration in Washington DC, 6/18/05, as seen in this video presentation. The famous "flag speech" was performed, as scripted by the producers, to be non-offensive to the wives and ladies of the audience of 1,200 guests.

Held in the grand ballroom of the Hilton Washington, Tim as "Patton" proudly shared the stage with many top brass of the Army and Pentagon, including guest speaker VP Dick Cheney, Emmy award winning actress Susan Lucci (emcee), Secretary of the Army Francis Harvey, Vice Chief of Staff Dick Cody, BG Bill Weber (also emcee) and the US Army Jazz Ambassodors Band and US Army Soldier Show.

The Army actually recruited Tim for this grand event, being known and recognized for his many notable appearances at military bases for AFFES, the base and post exchanges, including two appearances also at Patton's honored West Point Military Academy. He's also a "special guest" at many retirement parties for Generals, Colonels and all levels of officers and enlisted men and women. From this, the US Army deemed Tim the best "General George Patton" performer in the world. . .and certainly they would want and could get "the best."

Instead of being the usual actor just "mirroring" the Patton movie interpretation, Tim actually looks, sounds and moves like the real "Old Blood & Guts Patton," himself, not the common paunchy "Hollywood star" version. If you really know the real General George S. Patton, you'll definitely know the big difference between him and the "movie man"(however, when requested Tim also does a "bang up" fun-style parody of the movie star take-off as well!)

To quote Machelle Eitniear, of Army Television, The Pentagon, Washington, DC., producers of the event ..
"Thank you for your support of our event. Your presence set the tone for the evening!"

Someone actually gets it right. I always thought that the George C. Scott movie, while great entertainment, was poor history. The man was far more complex.

My first job was working for a guy who served as a lieutenant under GSP in the 3rd Army. "Our blood, his guts" was his assessment.

[TBCSTARS]

@BenAliGtor I'm very glad you see that I portray General George S. Patton and not actor George C. Scott....I'm also very proud that many of the WWII Army Veterans who actually knew and served with Patton have remarked to me, "Man, you should have been the guy for the movie not that George C.Scott fella!" I always thank them and say, "When the movie came out I was only 18, so now I'm 58, same age as when he invaded North Africa and Sicily, hard as a hickory stick, too, give me the movie remake!

[TBCSTARS]

I think it's funny that most folks don't realize I perform nationally, coast to coast as over 50 different stars and have been at this fun for over 25 years. It's been a very good living as this is all I do, taken me on a virtual working vacation to all the great tourists places like Orlando, Las Vegas, NYC, Las Angeles, Atlanta, Wash DC, and made many many friends with a lot of great people who enjoy my appearances....Check out my many "TBC Stars" in my YouTube channel, TBCSTARS !!!

Finally an impersonation that looks and sounds like the General. From what I've studied, I understand he was actually somewhat sub conscience about his voice. He spent a year at my school and I wish he hadn't gone to Westpoint and left the Institute, but he had no other choice. But once again, this is a great job. I know there may be some uniform discrepancies, but for almost all audiences this is quite a job well done.

Thank you....I do perform as him, and not as an other actor's interpretation. This is why ARMY TV recruited me for this in '05. It took quite a while to locate, but I finally found a wonderful real OD WWII Officers 4 pocket tunic, in my very hard to find size 44 Reg. 95% of these are 36-38-40-42... I have the authentic El Paso Saddlery "Patton" gun rig, just couldn't wear it to this event . See my newly acquired coat on my web site. Note my speech is performed exactly as Army scripted.

[Mr2ndAmendment]

Yes, I read in the description that you had to perform their speech. I understand it, but do you ever get to perform the "real deal" with profanity?

[TBCSTARS]

Oh yes! As a fact, most WW2 Vets, when it's appropriate, demand it! I have to chuckle afterwards... It seems Patton's uncensored "bare nuckles" approach to pronouncing the purpose of war caused his men to react with the fervor they did..Patton knew this. I was recently performing for some older vets and a hobbled gentleman arose from his walker, and said, as if I were really "Patton," "You were a mean G.D. bastard!!! ...but thank you for that...we wouldn't have won the war without you!!!!

[TheBatlchip]

Nicely done sir.It seems to me that most people forget that Patton loved all his men from the guy on KP to his staff.I still would like to have heard some of his thoughts on the things he did.

[TBCSTARS]

Again, read through the prior comments : Although historically, General Patton was not a 4-Star at the time of the original speech, he did on occasion perform elements of it in later less formal speeches...In this "Hollywood" stylized form it is performed as a "reprise" in the manner of the Academy Award winning movie, "Patton" (the opening scene) It's performed as is the movie, in 4-Star. I of course know that but 99 out of 100 don't so we suffer the folks that don't...'nuff said.

[TBCSTARS]

You're referring to the "compass holder" on my El Paso Saddlery holster rig pictured on my web site. It and the full E.P. S. rig and Colt 45 are not pictured in the video as I left them home...US Secret Service would have confiscated the entire rig. However, it too, is an E.P.S. item, and I also have the matching E.P.S. 45 catridge belt case. You may find this interesting - this "compass holder" is actually a "handcuff case" that Patton found conveniently sized for his compass! TBCSTARS
