Kapitel 949: Chapter 708: Artillery Position

George Smith Patton Jr. was a famous United States Army general during World War II and a legendary figure in American history.

Many considered him "a genius in commanding large armies and the most aggressive pioneer officer" and "the Napoleon of the twentieth century"; yet others believed he was "brave but not smart enough," "arrogant, and all flash with no substance."

Many famous generals from World War II held Patton in high esteem, which was enough to prove his personal abilities and excellent tactical literacy.

But now, in the year 1928 of this era, Patton was still an inconspicuous figure within the American military.

Before being entrusted with significant responsibilities, Patton's rank was only that of a captain, and he served as a staff member in the United States Army without any real authority.

The neglect he suffered over the years and being forced to frequently transfer positions made Patton acutely aware that America was not as great as it seemed.
