George S. Patton had a long career in the Army. During WW2, he was a general in command of an Army. So many generals are not associated with a branch of service as they can command infantry, armor and artillery.

George Patton had served with the cavalry and was an advocate of the new armored units. He helped establish the Desert Training Center or California-Arizona Maneuver Area near Yuma, AZ, which was used for large scale tank training. Patton's 3rd Army also depended on its armored units to defeat the Germans.
