    Why don't you look up Romeo Dallaire, the man who saved tens of thousands of Rwandans during the 1994 genocide who also suffers PTSD, and then come back here and tell me people with PTSD are "pussies".

  • U.S. Army was the only WW2 army where a general would apologize to an enlisted man. In the German or Russian army a soldier that wouldn't fight would just be shot.

  • zacharycat and anyone else: NOPE: German Army officer in WW2 apologized to non-commissioned officer Jewish American airman held as a POW in his POW camp in Germany after German NCO's physically assaulted and slapped this Jewish American. Heard directly from this former POW a long since retired Toronto Canadian doctor.

  • I suspect Patton may have had PTSD himself and felt a great deal of self-hatred towards himself and acted the way he did because he was attacking someone who reminded him of his own "weakness".

  • @kill3456 Beyond his light tank experiences during WWI, what kind of action as he seen anywhere near being comparable to what these men did? He's a nasty person. He got his job done, and he did it damn well, but it makes me think no greater of him.

    His racism, and desire for battle far outweigh the good in his character.

  • @oloompop I'm sure you can cite proper historical sources in order to prove what your claiming is true?

  • I just found out today that the soldier that this actually happened

    too was my great grandmas boyfriend at the time. lol

  • In real life this soldier was Shell shocked beyond belief, he could barely talk pissed his pants in bed etc, and Patton put a gun to his head yelled at him and slapped him. If anything, patton was the coward here.

  • @Asarelah It is just a film.

  • @Asarelah That man is the definition of a true hero.

  • that's what they need to do to that coward of an Italian captain that abandoned ship

  • Only the us will bitch about this
