He was thrown from many horses as a child although none were very serious, so I would say no.
YES
I can't find any evidence that he ever had a child out of wedlock.
Polo, football, and finished fifth in the 1912 Olympics in the pentathlon (and probably should have been given the gold medal--there was a controversial score by the judges in one event).
No one ever said it better than George Patton: "The object of war is not to die for your country. The object of war is to make the other poor B#%$@&D die for his country".
Yes. George Washington oversaw the construction of the White House, but did not reside in it, as it was almost completed when John Adams became President.
George Smith Patton Jr. was born in San Gabriel, California in 1885, to George Smith Patton Sr. (1856-1927) and his wife Ruth Wilson (1861-1928), daughter of Benjamin Davis Wilson. Although he was actually the third George Smith Patton after his grandfather, he was called Junior. The Pattons were an affluent family of Scots-Irish and English descent. As a boy, Patton read widely in the classics and military history. His father was a friend of John Singleton Mosby, the noted cavalry leader of the Confederate Army in the American Civil War who served first under J.E.B. Stuart and then as a guerrilla fighter. Patton grew up hearing Mosby's stories of his adventures, and longed to become a general himself. Patton came from a military family; ancestors even before his grandfather included General Hugh Mercer of the American Revolution.[5] His grand uncle, Waller T. Patton, died of wounds received in Pickett's Charge during the Battle of Gettysburg. John M. Patton and Isaac Patton, also his grand uncles, were colonels in the Confederate States Army. Another grand uncle, William T. Glassell, was a Confederate States Navy officer. Hugh Weedon Mercer, a Confederate general, was his close relative. John M. Patton, a great-grandfather, was a lawyer and politician who had served as acting governor of Virginia. Patton's paternal grandparents were Colonel George Smith Patton and Susan Thornton Glassell. His grandfather, born in Fredericksburg, Virginia, graduated from Virginia Military Institute (VMI), Class of 1852, second in a class of 24. After graduation, George Smith Patton studied law and practiced in Charleston, Virginia (now West Virginia). When the American Civil War broke out, he served in the 22nd Virginia Infantry of the Confederate States of America and was killed during the Battle of Opequon. The Confederate Congress had promoted Colonel Patton to brigadier general; however, at the time, he had already died of battle wounds, so that promotion was never official.
Yes u can. my child got bit and has been sick ever since and it almost a week now.
She looks great and goes to my church.
General Patton
yes by not allowing patton to seize berlin we got the cold war with the soviets, also some of his decisions led to the battle of the bulge, patton knew this. yes patton may have been a loose cannon but he was simply a great warrior..and if he would have been allowed to do some of the things he wanted lots of americans wouldnt have died, like at the battle of the bulge but eisenhower snubbed almost every patton request. the one that makes people think patton had lost it was his desire to take the 3rd army and drive the russians back to moscow. could we have won?? some people say yes, some say no but patton was right about the russians. stalin was worse than sudaam hussein ever was. anyway dde made mistakes , for sure
No. He was a four star general. He may have become a 5 star general had he lived longer. However, in December of 1945 he was in a car accident and was paralyzed from the neck down. After a few weeks, he succumbed to his injuries. And there were 5 star generals at the time. Eisenhower, Marshall, and MacArthur were all 5 star generals.
The person who is the most respected general ever is up for debate. There have been several great generals in the history of the world. Even though Julius Caesar was considered a tyrant by his peers, he was a great general and military leader. There is also Dwight Eisenhower, Napoleon Bonaparte, George S. Patton, and Douglas MacArthur to consider.
