Patton: Soldier Who Saved His Life and the One Who Caused His Death
Publisher Description
When an enemy bullet tore through George S. Patton's body during WWI, PFC Angelo carried his commander to a shallow crater, bandaged his wound, and fought off the enemy for several hours. This heroic action saved Patton's life and earned the brave soldier a Distinguished Service Cross. Twenty-seven years later, T/5 Thompson went for a joyride in an Army truck and slammed into Patton's car driven by PFC Woodring. This careless accident that caused Patton's death occurred just one day before the four-star general's scheduled return to the United States for his retirement.
