    My father Captain Rex S. Morgan Sr. was put in charge of Patton’s funeral. Dad was the Army’s Chief of Mortuaries in the European Theater during WW2. He and his men were responsible for establishing cemeteries on the continent including the Luxembourg American Cemetery where Patton is buried. General Robert Littlejohn, Chief Quartermaster of the ETO and a close friend of Patton’s, called upon my father to organize Patton’s funeral. Dad went to Paris and picked out the best casket available. He personally prepared the general’s body for burial, dressing him in his beribboned Army jacket. (If you look in Patton’s pocket today you’ll find my father’s business card.) Dad appears several times in these news reels, notably walking in front of the casket as the pallbearers exit Villa Reima and walking behind the casket as it was carried to the gravesite. Hard to imagine but he had all that responsibility at the tender age of 24. Ten months later Dad attended the Nuremberg hangings and was charged with cremating and disposing of the remains of the top Nazis executed there. Hermann Goering & Co. had a much less distinguished send-off than General Patton to say the least. That’s a big story for another day.

    I visited the great mans grave most sundays.As i worked in nearby Trier Germany.Just a short trip to Hamm.Iwas told Gen Patton wished to be buried amongst his men. A wish he got.But later had to be buried at the head of his men due to the amount of visitors to his gravesite.A truly beautiful resting place.🇺🇸

    We need men like General Patton today. He was a great leader. I wasn't born until 1948 but enjoyed studying history and WWII was my favorite. I worked with a lot of men who had fought in WWII and they were true patriots. Most men and women who were in WWII have passed on with few remaining. Appreciated your film on General Patton's funeral.

    There's no such thing as "too hard" in war. That's why we haven't won a war since. We're too afraid of what someone will say if we're "too hard". And don't say we won Desert Storm because it wasn't a war. It was a battle we won, but we didn't finish the war because they said we were "too hard" on the Highway of Death.

    For over a thousand years Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of triumph, a tumultuous parade. In the procession came trumpeteers, musicians and strange animals from conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments. The conquerors rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children robed in white stood with him in the chariot or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror holding a golden crown and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting. George Patton

    Had he lived past January 1st 1946 he most likely would have been, either Arlington or the West Point Cemetery, an equally honorable place. 1/1/1946 was the cut-off date for burials in American cemeterys in Europe, soldiers who died after that date were to be returned home. In fact there were plans to fly Patton home for treatment in Walter Reed Army Hospital but he died before the plans came to fruition.

    I don't believe the "accident" theory. There were two other attempts on his life right before that... one with a cart that almost killed him in the street... (it rolled towards him and he had to dodge it) I believe the other was a shot that came out of nowhere and almost got him. Question is... Who ? Russians were his enemies... The German "Werewolf" unit (whom were saboteurs and assassins) were still very active around that time getting revenge hits on various targets. Or... A political move?

    My first awareness of Gen Patton was through the George C Scott's portrayal of him in the blockbuster "Patton". Since then I must have seen that movie over 25 times. He became my idol and read all books about him, his persona and his only motto - in war you take the battle to the enemy, there is no word called Retreat! Gen Patton was dead right about phony generals and great pretenders, and 150% correct about the threat of Communism to post WW2 world. I salute you General almost every other day for being the only TRUE soldier and patriot of WW2. May you rest in peace. You will be back on earth again as a leader and a General engaging in battle!

    @ Conrad Sunkiojack The United States Army has NO such rank as Field Marshall and NEITHER do any of the Armed Services of The United States. George S Patton Junior was still on Active Duty as a Four Star General when he died and was entitled to a Military Funeral and Burial with all of the rights and privileges afforded his Rank and Position. Furthermore, The Pentagon and each of the service chiefs together with their staff officers make recommendations to the President and The Congress for promotions to various grades and positions based upon the Rule of Law and Regulations within the Military.

    En la primera guerra mundial tambien llamada la gran guerra a un simple oficial se le dio el mando de la primera division blindada por no la consideraron viable y porque queria que fracasase para seguir con los metodos tradicionales, Pero este joven oficial demostraria su valia y capacidad de mando ademas que la idea del tanque no solo es util sino que seria el futuro de la guerra lo que lo llevo a reconstruir el ejercito para que estuviera a la altura de los estandartes modernos comenzando un carrera que lo consagraria como una leyenda hoy dia Tal fue el impacto que provoco el general patton que en su funeral habian soldados y oficiales tanto aliados como enemigo e incluso sovieticos ,despidiendo al hombre que hizo lo imposible derrotar al ejercito nazi en su propio juego la guerra relampago a su manera lo peor fue quien dio la orden de matarlo se arrepentiria luego por que al final el general tenia razon sobre los rusos y las armas nucleares. Ademas en las (2) dos guerra venideras LA DE KOREA Y VIETNAM lo iban a necesitar porque el era capaz de hacer que los soldado no solo peleen sino que ganen con todo en contra. el mejor lider militar que hubo desde alejandro magno , julio cesar y u.s grant no habra otro como el carismatico , leal , valiente ,terco para rendirse, tenaz y lo principal hacia que los hombres fueran como el y aun mas lo que hacia que sus enemigos le temieran solo al nombrarlo y al final lo respetarna tanto que lo despidieron con honores militares. Cumplio con la promesa hecha a su suegro, patton traeria honor , respeto y fama a la familia a cambio el suegro se encargaria de las finanzas y el bienestar de la misma mientras el general patton lucharia en europa muchos dijeron que el final del general fue todo sorpresivo pero que tiene sentido los hombres que dirigio en vida lo haria tambien en la muerte , si el general invadiera el infierno sus hombres lo seguirian y de regreso. Ya que ningun comandante hacia lo que el luchaba , comia y dormia con sus soldados en el frente y asi saber de primera mano sus problemas y necesidades en la lucha , no como la gran mayoria de oficiales y generales que lo hacian a miles de kilometro detras de las tropas en una oficina tranquila y confortable Asi veian al gran general el unico que sabia bien como se debia luchar donde y cuando ,Ademas de que fue el hombre que construyo al ejercito de ESTADOS UNIDOS desde nada para ser lo que es ahora SALUDOS GENERAL

    If he was murdered, then why was the truck driver who hit the Army jeep not charged or found guilty and in jail? The local police in Germany and US military police both investigated this and found that it was an unfortunate accident and couldn't pin any fault because of lack of evidence of any criminality. That's why you need to not jump to conclusions until you got evidence otherwise.
