Is this MacGuyver’s grandpa???
Um. I know Patton is full of win, but I believe the general your mentioning with
the philippines and all is MacArthur…
You are correct, it was MacArthur. Patton fought in ETO, not PTO.
dont forget the ATO. he was the leading american general against rommel’s afrika corps.
my uncle served under him in N.africa durring WW2, said he talked to him once (he spoke german as a first language). said he was an ass hole. but that he would follow him to the ends of the earth. i meet another gentleman who served with him in anzio and N.africa. said the same thing.
MACarther was in the S.Pac
Both MacArthur and Patton were the greatest generals in American history, and without them, WWII wouldn’t have been won. Also, if MacArthur had been allowed to stay in his position, we wouldn’t have to worry about the Chinese right now….we probably would’ve turned out different then, but that would be one less problem….if all of this went right over your head, read up on the Korean War
Actually, Montgomery (the Brit) did most of the work in N. Africa. Patton was there for a couple of the battles, really put the nail in the coffin and help end the thing but you need to give the Brits there due, they did a lot of the heavy lifting before we got there.
Now, after D-Day, that was Patton’s time. His campaign in the souther part of Italy was impressive, but after the D-Day landing is when he really get rolling. 3rd Army babby, kick’d major ass!
Best. Comment. Ever.
McCain went to school with MacGuyver’s Grampa.
*runs and hides*
Oh, you scamp!! You shouldn’t hit the monkey cage like that.
Hmmm….. I just now noticed that “grenades” is misspelled. What is a “gernade”?
An aid to Gerns…
Well, I thought it might be that – or a refreshing summer drink in Germany?
dem der gernades is high falutin fahr-crackahs.
Try saying ‘grenade’ in an ‘American military type in the 40′s’ accent and it will sound like ‘gernades’
Nice…made me laugh out loud.
hehe “gernades” is a nice touch. good ol patton.
Oh sure, it is always about age with you! Patton is not old, he is just well seasoned.
Well seasoned indeed. What would Patton say if he were alive today?
“Let me outta this coffin!”
Maybe work on your delivery a bit.
No worries, I’m not quitting my day job.
Well, he did believe in re-incarnation, so when is someone gonna put Patton 2.0 in charge of this mess so we can get it over with?
Hell yeah! Patton would kick much Arab ass!
WilliamCA
Indeed?
jellybeans
um, Arabs are from Arab countries. Persians live in Iran…
thank you sooo much for knowing that, bugs the hell out of me when people assume all of the Middle East is composed of Arabs =)
Ahh! He’s got a board with a nail in it!
I believe that is called a Prince Albert.
heeheehee… ouch.
Board with a nail, not wood with a nail. Subtle difference. And I agree with the below comment of “Ouch”
YES! Quick! Somebody make an Pact with various dark forces and resurrect him! And John Wayne.
The Duke will flick lit cigarrettes at them. Hard.
i don´t think so .. marion michael died of lung cancer. i think he would throw away his ciggies – like grenades.
Nope, he’d throw ‘em away like gernades!
Don’t you know, John Wayne’s not dead, he’s frozen. And as soon as we find a cure for cancer we’re gonna thaw the duke out and he’s going to be pissed. Why? Ever taken a cold shower? Multiply that by about 50 million, that’s how pissed off the dukes gonna be.
Free imaginary cookie to whoever places that quote.
Dennis Leary, No cure for cancer.
I can has cookie!
Yes you can has imaginary cookie. Took a total of 5 hours for someone to post the right answer. Actually thought it would take longer, what with these kids today and their cheeseburgers not respecting good old Dennis.
lol, yeah. I probably would have posted sooner, but I didn’t check the comments section right away.
I actually own the cd, it’s pretty good.
Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t beleive it took 3 days before anyone posted that reply after the mention of resurrecting the duke.
It’s you.
LOL–I had it on cassette!
WHADDYA MEAN WHAT’S A CASSETTE?!
Denis! One N! some people….
Dennis Leary, No Cure for Cancer.
Patton was too smart. He knew not to fall for one of the classic blunders. You know; never get into a land war in Asia. (Who knows what would have happened if Mussolini had been a Sicilian…)
He played Risk so many times, he learned his lesson.
Mmmm…. I like skittles.
You forgot “six custom-made Army jackets, my own personal valet, and five dedicated news feeds to keep the American public apprised of my own — um, the men’s — valorous deeds.”
WHAT problem? The fabricated one? or…. How bout the U.S. justs works on the two wars they’ve already got on their plates. Do us all a favour.
what’s he need the skittles for? if he doesnt need’em, can i have’em?
Dude, you don’t know? Skittles are the secret to his total asskickery…
Naw, just joshin’. He just might get hungry while he’s kicking major ass.
Never mock a war god and his skittles.
Problems in Iran?
You got to send some guy to make some troubles first. Like those british fellas.
mmm skittlz…
i can haz skittlez? kthxbai
That’s right, the little pricks. But they are noble little pricks, noble. Because they fight with their guts, like animals. And for an idea! That’s rich. We can wipe that little idea right out of their savage animal guts with some thermonuclear pain. Why don’t we use this high tech kit? And when were done with Iran, lets do North Korea, Russia, China, France, Quebec, Japan, Germany, Mexico and Texas – anyone that has ever fought or slighted the good old USA. We’ve used the bomb twice a few more times will be cathartic and really serve as a purgative of our collective, saddened soul.
Strange…Texas?
And if you mention the Civil War, might as well blow up half the U.S.
given it’s the lower half i don’t see a problem…
awww here it goes
SKITTLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like mcaulliffe
shoulda had Rommel take care of it, Patton was a dick. his favorite tactic was to basically turtle till he knows he has the overwhelming advantage, where Rommel managed to pull off genius tactics even being hindered by Hitler’s paranoia and the confusing military structure Hitler sloshed together.
Well, my choice would have been Chesty Puller personaly, but then, I am a Marine.
Dude. You may want to masturbate more often to work out that aggression…
Masturbation turns you into a communist you know.
I know history and you’re obviously been fed a lot of propaganda, I feel sorry for you actually
Generals around the world wish to achieve his lvl of military genius to this day, many try to emulate his teachings and techniques.
you do realize that he’s considered among the greatest military leaders of all time? and that before it was reclassified as a ARCENT, the third army still referred to itself as PATTON’S ARMY
sounds like you have been fed alot of propaganda
