The General George S. Patton Story

Department of Defense. Department of the Army. Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations. U.S. Army Audiovisual Center. (ca. 1974 - 05/15/1984)

ARC Identifier 2569725 / Local Identifier 111-TV-468. A remarkable and informative biography comes to the screen in "The General Patton Story" as narrated by Ronald Reagan and produced by the Army Pictorial Center. Here is a story of a soldier who lived for action and glory and reached the heights in serving his country. This is a page from contemporary history devoted to the life of General George S. Patton, Jr., whose Third Army swept across the continent of Europe. It is a mirror reflecting Patton's major principle for fighting battles or a war--attack, attack and, when in doubt--attack again. On a strictly visual appraisal, the choice combat footage of General Patton presents an insight into the character of the man. No American leader was more colorful and more successful, stepping forth like some warrior of old--to lead and inspire vast forces of men. While the basic elements of "The General Patton Story" are combat sequences, the film documentary delves into the General's life with such intimate details as his inability to spell, although a model cadet at West Point. A believer in showmanship, he was aware that if the act could not be carried off in fine style, the men would see through it. Always the "old man" pushed his men harder than anyone had pushed them before. Always the results were more than they might have expected. For a commander who was so obviously a winner--they would do the impossible. Patton is a study in duty, patriotism and loyalty.

  • He was Germany's enemy !!!

    Nevertheless, he still deserves respect because he was telling the truth and because he has praised the German soldiers and of course he was an honest and dangerous enemy. A picture of Rommel was at his desk.

    He write the truth about the Jews in his " The Patton Papers, 1940-1945 P.744 " then he was murdered.

    He knew that the 2 World War (Like the first) comes from the hand of the Jews, and he write it down.

    Then he was KILLED !!!

  • My great-grandpa was General Bevon :) He has served under General Patton.

    No shit. Jewish controlled hollywood created dramatization of the Italian mob. In reality Jews are the ones who have run organized crimes around the world for centuries. The old Nazi propaganda movies from the 30s explain it perfectly. They are scum, trafficking 1 million girls out of eastern Europe.

  • We need more men like this in america. we live in a country full of whiney liberals and whimpy spoiled kids who will probably be our future politicians.

  • @DeutschwehR03 du bist total dumm.

  • @WhiteWeasel420 You are one sick bastard. Come and meet this Jew and others like me. We will tear your heart from chest and then shove it down your Nazi throat! If you think that all Jews are bankers, doctors, lawyers and other professionals you are dead wrong. Have you ever heard of Murder Incorporated? They were Jewish gangsters who were so bad that the Mafia hired them to do their hits.

    We will see who is right and who is wrong !!!
