General George S. Patton's Personal Jeep Driver Remembers the Legendary Man

This video was released only a couple of days ago and has some interesting insights; contrary to what was in the film.

When I was investigating Patton’s movements at the very end of the war, I saw where Eisenhower literally ordered Patton NOT to go into Czechoslovakia. Three months later, Patton was in “Silesia” and Eisenhower said absolutely nothing to Patton about it.

Thanks for this. Was disappointed that the interviewer didn’t ask about Patton’s fatal traffic accident. Nary a word. But good on you. Persevere.

I too was disappointed that the accident wasn’t asked about either, but consider this driver likely did not know about Patton’s route to Silesia, nor was he Patton’s driver t the time of the accident…
