This is a heads up that The History Channel will air a multi-part documentary called "Patton 360"; should be on in Feb/March. It will feature quite a bit on the 4th Armored Division (the producers have been using my book), and in addition to a lot of Computer Generated Graphics, they will have interviews with surviving vets. I'll provide more details as they are available.
Given moden media, and George C. Scott's great impersonation of him on film, Patton may be even more of an overrated general then Robert E. Lee...*ducks*
You cant say Robert E. Lee was over rated, he ran rings round the union armies. If it was more bad luck than union generalship that the he lost at Gettysburg.
