Is Gen Gary Patton related to George S Patton?

No. I asked that same question when I served with him in Korea. His reply was " I wish I had a nickel for everytime I've been asked that" His answer to Stars and Stripes was to the effect that he did not know of any common relatives, his father served in WWII and other relevant information about the immediate family that made it clear that no one was aware of any connection at that time either. (George S Patton's descendants are well known and do not include Gary Patton) Gary Patton has had enough media exposure that if there were any firm connection to George S Patton a genealogy enthusiast would have blogged about it long ago.


What did the soldiers think about George Patton?

His own troops called him "Old Blood and Guts", but cheered him lustily when he passed by. It was a symbol of pride for any soldier to say after the war, "I fought with Patton!"
