During World War II, General George S. Patton commanded the Third United States Army. He played a significant role in various campaigns, including the liberation of France and the Battle of the Bulge. Patton was known for his aggressive tactics and rapid armored advances, which greatly contributed to the Allied success in Europe.
Eisenhower likely kept Patton in command due to his exceptional leadership skills and military effectiveness, which were crucial during critical operations in World War II. Despite Patton's controversial behavior, Eisenhower recognized that his aggressive tactics and ability to inspire troops outweighed the potential drawbacks of his outspoken nature. Additionally, removing Patton could have created instability within the ranks at a time when strong leadership was essential for success. Eisenhower may have believed that managing Patton's eccentricities was preferable to losing a talented commander.

Respectfully, you are referring to anywhere from 500,000 to 1,000,000 men. Gen. Patton was the Commanding Officer of the 2nd Armored Division, II Corps, Seventh & Third Army before he died in December 1945. I own most of the histories of the divisions that served under Gen. Patton during WW 2, so if you just need random names I can provide you with several thousand. Richard V. Horrell WW 2 Connections.com
