He was a good dude when he wasn’t kicking the shit out of opposing Armies. Read about his “accident”. He was in the front passenger seat of his Cadillac limo warming up after hunting in the cold rain (was December). The hunting dog they brought was in the troop truck following behind. The dog was freezing. Patton ordered the dog moved to his caddy and sit in his seat (with the heater) up front, and Patton moved to the back seat.
