General Patton
61 years ago today General George S. Patton Jr died. I spent some time today re-reading many of his quotes. RIP General Patton.

My personal favorite,
"DARBY, LIEUTENANT COLONEL

Bradley wanted to get Lieutenant Colonel Darby to command the 180th Regimental Combat Team of the 45th Division with the rank of Colonel. Darby preferred to stay with the Rangers. This the first time I ever saw a man turn down a promotion. Darby is a great soldier. I gave him the Distinguished Service Cross."
