    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    "I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same of others"...John Wayne in "The Shootist"

    Thanks, I read every damn word of it and found it interesting, very revealing and pretty such on par with my overall view made on Patton from my many years of studying fighting generals.
    To me Patton was like a modern day reincarnation of Stonewall Jackson.... same devotion to duty, winning, heading to the front to get a must needed strategic view of terrain and enemy placements, and a firm believer rapid movements in advancing.--Tyr

    I liked his one saying (paraphrased) "Fixed fortifications are a monument to the stupidity of mankind".
    Very true in the era of mechanized warfare!
