I had three uncles that fought in Patton's 3rd army at the battle of the bulge. All three survived and all three were awarded the bronze star.
My father was there, in the Third Armored Division. He drove a Sherman on the drive to relieve Bastogne. Of course, having served in the 101st Airborne (Vietnam), we have never admitted that the 101st NEEDED to be relieved.
@@steffenritter7497 Was it a requirement of 101st to be a Ranger?
My dad did as well. Member of 602d Tank Destroyer Battalion that was attached to 3d Army and made the overnight march 20-21 Dec 44 from the Saar in France to Positions just southwest of Bastogne.
@@brucebarthold5359 Like I said my dad's three brothers were there then and in 1946 when my dad graduated from Trinidad High, Colorado he went in the army and was promptly placed in Military Government in Japan and after when in the reserves he was in Intelligence. So of course I went into the Marines at 17. I should have went in to get some pay back for my cousin that was killed in Vietnam, but my main purpose was to do my job and get out alive. www.virtualwall.org/da/AnselmoWF01a.htm
@@AmericanIsraeliJew I’m sorry for the loss of your cousin in Vietnam and thank you for your service. My dad and his brother both served in Europe. I retired from active duty after 30 years in the Air Force, 9 of them in Germany where I had an opportunity to visit towns my dad had been through in 1944-1945.
This man didn't play Patton. He just brought Patton alive.
It took a Marine veteran to play the greatest army general….
@@MrSpudz2 my butts been wiped
-beloved resident biden
He’s a better Patton than Patton
@@enshk79 LMAO!! (I say that very thing ALL THE TIME!!)
@@enshk79The real speech he made was far more graphic, and longer than this one. It was never recorded only transcribed.
1:00 Fun trivia: The ivory-handled revolvers George C. Scott wears in the opening speech were actually George S. Patton's bona-fide revolvers.
So in a way, the late General made a cameo.
wow
That’s not true, they copied the pistols from the Ft Knox museum.
@@11Bravo19D IMDB said they were the real ones.
That's what I thought when I saw that revolver.
So which is it? Real or replica?
My father told me that even long haired hippies back in 1970 admired him. That says a lot about the man and his legacy.
The day this movie opened, a bunch of my "long-haired hippie" classmates and I went en masse to see it in the theater, but it wasn't so much about Patton as it was about Scott. The buzz about his performance was unlike anything I had heard before or have heard since. Plus, we made a clear distinction between WWII and Vietnam. There is a big difference between fighting fascism and responding to a direct attack and fighting a war to prop up French colonialism.
@@mc76 Fighting fascism and fighting communism are both honorable motives.
@@Anthony-jo7up I agree with the communism part but whats wrong with fascism?
@@Jack-cd5dj fascism is communism with color outfits. I personally don't like talking heads deciding how I should live.
He died in 1945, the long haired hippes in 1970 wouldn't have known shit.
My grandfather served under Patton in WW 2, and got to actually hear Patton give this speech before D Day. By then end of the war, he had three purple hearts and a bronze star. He loved this movie and felt George C. Scott really captured the real Patton in his performance.
>>got to actually hear Patton give this speech
Patton also did not fight at d day
"served under patton" i bet he did. 😜
Our blood. His guts
@@alexmuenster2102 Supposedly Patton's actual speech was too vulgar to put in a movie (at that time). So the expletives were replaced, but the content was used in numerous speeches.
I spoke to a veteran of Patton’s 3rd army years ago & when I asked him if serving under Patton was difficult because he was so driven all he said was, “we didn’t lose many guys.” That was that..
Honor among MEN - Respect 💪
That's not a Russian way. Zhukov way is to die for nothing
We didn't lose many guys is bullshit. Battle of the Bulge saw 60,000 casualties by itself.
@@pawewernicki7705 Yes, he was also the main Reason the NAZIS were defeated.
Love
The US Army actually played this clip to us during Basic Training in the mid 70s.
So inspiring
Hope they still do it, but it would probably be considered "offensive"
Did you tear through the enemy like crap through a goose?
Yes. I saw this speech in the movie theater at Fort Jackson, SC in the summer of 1975 during basic training. As a 17 year old private, I felt like I/we could do anything under a General like Patton after watching this clip.
@@donragsdale2761 …and I was doing basic at Leonard Wood in 1975.
The BEST movie opening made. EVER. Period.
Well said!
I agree 100%! This scene gives me chills no matter how many times I watch it!
Written by Francis Ford Coppola
Nah, that honor belongs to Citizen Kane.
@@leroyproud294 yes undoubtedly the best.
I remember watching this as a kid in Fort Leavenworth, KS. We all used to stand for the National Anthem before movies, but this day they didn't do the national anthem, yet we all stood up when the flag appeared. Then George C Scott walks out and tells us all to "be seated". Beautiful.
USAF vet here. I have to admit that seeing the movie some years after my service sitting up a little straighter when the off-screen voice called "Attention!" and Mr. Scott appeared on screen.
The last time I went the base theater played the National Anthem.
Great story !! Thanks for sharing
Beautiful.
As an American...a spirit in us that needs to be recaptured.
It starts with honoring God.
It starts with honoring the sweet taste of Charleston Chew.
@@helives2630 it starts with honoring your mom 😎 gottem
i'd be happy to capture you stud. 😘
@@helives2630 we are not a Christian Nation.
I could watch this scene several times a day and it would never fail to give me chills! To call George C Scott‘s performance incredible and legendary would be an understatement!
ohh.
Patton ... is my ringtone
It sets my fucking blood on fire. First time hearing it at the Save America rally 08.21.21.... I must say, it's not the same without the roar of the men around me! The screams and applause of what must have been at least a hundred thousand people; it was surreal!!!!!!!!!!
Karl Malden as Bradley too. Awesome back and fourth between those two all through the movie.
And this is almost the verbatim of Patton's speech except some of the vulgarities which Patton used profusely are edited out
George C. Scott initially refused to do the opening speech after he found out it would be put at the beginning of the film. He thought that the rest of his performance would never be able to live up to the opening scene, so director Franklin J. Schaffner lied and told him that it would be put at the end
Thank you Hunter wilder for this information
Damn, yet another instance where a director lied to George C Scott. Kubrick in Dr Strangelove for saying he wont use George C Scott's rehearsal takes in the final film, which he did for pretty much the entire movie, and this!
@@nicholasteixeira8979 yes it's right... another instance...
And that's why he still did best performance regardless of his worries
@@MIMALECKIPL why did he refuse his oscar?
My favorite Patton quote: "Do not take counsel in your fears." That is the way to live the good life.
Amén 🙏🏼
Exactly
I'm not a soldier. I'm not even American. But I still always feel pumped up after listening to this speech.
And I think George C. Scott's portrayal is one of the most towering acting performances in film history.
George c scott nailed this part like none other could except patton himself.
I am a foreign born American, naturalized United States citizen. I was a soldier, and every time I hear that Speech. I also feel pumped up.
Yep
Proud to have served in the GREAT 3rd Army. Granted it was almost 60 years after General Patton, I was proud to have that as my combat patch. I always will be too!
Thank You for Your service.
Awesome.
George Patton had quite a high pitched voice in real life. But it’s the message you’re sending that counts, not now high or low pitched your voice is.
And he was very self-conscious about his voice when he was younger
George C Scott was a better Patton then Patton was. His voice
Lincoln supposedly also had a high voice.
Did he sound like that squeaky 12 old that said "blud" every 3 words and threatens to stab you with a pencil?
@Nathan Hale there was a guy who wrote a book on that. Who knows ?!
My Dad landed on Omaha Beach and fought in the Battle of the Bulge. We never knew much about his wartime experiences until decades later. He never wanted credit for his service. In his own words, “It was just something that I did.”
I appreciate his service and sacrifices. My grandfather also was at Omaha Beach. I'm trying to make a memorial to the WW2 vets around Sewanee TN. Daddy got drafted and went to vietnam he was LRRPS. I Joined as 3rd generation airborne infantryman and 100 disabled from an IED on my 3rd combat tour. Despite everything I don't regret serving my country for 14 years
@@rakkasans6121 You and your family make me proud to be American
Your dad and my grandfather are part of the greatest generation. Let us never forget them
That is humility at it's finest. Hard to find that level of humility these days because too many want praise and honor for just doing what they are supposed to do. Your Father Jim just did his job that is it and the fact that he didn't want credit for it speaks very highly of him.
My Uncle Joe was there too. He said " I just did a job like everyone else. "
We need more leaders like Patton today.
Hard times build hard times, they're coming.
And like Eisenhower
"WHEN YOUR COUNTRY'S BEING RUN BY A MAN WHO CAN'T EVEN FINISH A SENTENCE..... _you'll know what to do."_

We do it's president trump
@@jeremydurante7761 The draft dodger?
Kendrick brought me here 🫡
My uncle is 97 and a few years ago at his wife's funeral we were at my grandparents' house that evening after the funeral (it was the night of Super Bowl 53) he would have been about 94 or 95 then. We were having coffee and cake and us men got to talking about our war experiences. My uncle Skeet had served with Patton in Europe all the way through to Berlin and from what I later learned was that he had been very mum about his years in WW2. This night he finally opened up. He talked about how General Patton would walk with his troops, instead of always just ride in his Jeep. He said having Patton as your commanding officer gave you confidence and made you feel safe because everyone knew he was the best General in the whole war. Also, to the other service members who didn't serve under Patton, the ones who did were looked on with more prestige, like they were members of the Patriots or Bulls dynasties or something.
Bernard Montgomery was an ant compared to Generals Patton and Bradley
@@robertmiller6876 Montgomery was an ant compared to any common grunt in the Allied Forces doing his duty.
That is amazing.
Every young man should hear this speech...
Millenials are too busy putting on their mascara.
@@nhmooytis7058 Boomer hippies started it first. We're living in the world they allowed to be created.
@@queuedjar4578 actually most of what is called BOOMER culture was created by THEIR parents, the silent generation. Including the Boomers themselves, read some history, dimwit.
Yes because war is a great thing we should all want. I'm not saying being strong is wrong but I want peace before war. Si vis pacem, para bellum.
Yep
The best commanding officer in my 30 yr career was the easiest to talk to and he didn’t let the junior officers abuse the enlisted ranks at all. Nobody ever misunderstood his intent because he was right to the point like this depiction. Be brief, be precise and be gone
Didn't he abuse several enlisted men?
@@FW-jq1ox He slapped an enlisted man for being cowardly with the intent of snapping him out of it. The incident bit Patton on the ass and the media sensationalized it.
Motivated them not abused a kick In the pants is a head start not a kick in the A$$
Wow!
@@FW-jq1ox leaders, real leaders will call out stupidity when deserved but most times he kept corrections to his junior officers since they needed it the most since it was generally their first command position and needed to be hemmed in
😂 I'm not even American, but I absolutely love this, it's sensational stuff from George C. Scott. Patton was a legend, and as well as being a phenomenal general, always wore his heart on his sleeve. I always feel like I can run through brick walls after I watch this scene! ❤
Yep.
I had the fortune of meeting a vet who served in General Pattons Battalion… while I didn’t get to talk with him for too long, it was an absolute honor to meet someone who embodied the very spirit of what it meant to be an American
I’m guessing he was a brigade commander
It still does.
I was told that when my grandparents watched this movie in theaters (either release or real close to release), there was a standing ovation after the speech. You don't see that anymore.
You don't see a movie like that anymore.
My Grandfather got drafted in the infantry in WW2 landed on Omaha Beach. My Daddy got drafted in Vietnam then volunteered for 2 additional combat tours so when I got old enough I joined the Army Airborne Infantry. After 14 years of service 3 combat tours 8 back surgeries and finally medical retirement I would die for this country. Gen. Patton was a natural born warrior, if we would have listened to him there wouldn't have been a cold war. Ne Desit Virtus
Patton’s pipe dream to invade the USSR and re-arm the Germans was batshit insane. He was rightfully removed from power after spewing that dangerous nonsense. Hundreds of thousands of Allied soldiers would have died regardless of the effects dropping Nukes on Moscow would have, and mainland Europe would have been completely overrun by the Soviets. It would have only served to massacre more people on both sides.
Thank you for your much admirable service to our country. Because of you and your grandfather and father we STILL have a country to be proud of!
My eyes kept me out...every male in my family served.
My uncle lost his hearing and a foot at Okinawa, but he still didn't regret serving
I regret not going.
Because of YOUR SERVICE I can have opinions, live where I want. Thank you
You are correct. He saw Russia as a threat. No one listened to him. Shoulda could woulda.
@@stephenhagen234yes
If they did this speech in a movie today, half of it would be drowned out by a progressively louder musical score. Proof you can just use words to set the scene’s mood.
True !
No the music would not drown it out. Because this speech would never have made it to the movie. Too many cry babies in the USA now.
@@livetotell100 Actually it'd be beloved. To everyone who misses the irony it'd be beautifully patriotic. To everyone who understood the parody of it, it'd be hilarious.
Absolutely but mixture is good too my personal favorite of this would be Lawrence of Arabia Peter O Toole and that score was amazing
Like this comment if you watching cause of Kendrick
As a Baby Boomer, I knew many men who served under his amazing leadership. He is one extraordinary reason why we are free.
Yes!
Today's generation needs to hear this every word
A friend of mine was a 2nd Lt in the 79th Division and heard Patton give this speech at a theater in England.
My Grandpa was in the 79th Infantry Cross of Lorraine Division and fought under Patton ❤️
Cool.
This is the most INSPIRING American thing EVER, It's a thing of beauty. My AUSTRIAN -American grandfather (a cop..) ended up training "M.P.s" during the war, and REALLY hated the Nazis for what they did to HIS homeland.
My uncle rocco was in the audience for this speech.
That would have been something too see
Ernest, my Dad was. 2nd Armoured Division.
Does anyone else get teary eyed when they watch this? Like feel the pride and will?
Every time 👊
Yes
The correct number of stars on the flag at the time!
I never noticed that, great call
@Nathan Hale my grandpa gave me one
The historical accuracy of the flag almost makes up for the cursed "Patton-Tigers" that appear later on in the movie.
@@alanxu3936 the reason for that was there wasn't enough working Tigers
oh dang I just noticed that!
Our freshman H.S.🏈football coach would pop this tape & play before Every game. At first we were amused, by game 3 we demanded it.
We loved it for inspiration & had a great season. I later did this when I coached ⚾️ in Little League (14yr olds) they got it.🤜🏻⚾️🤛🏻
Americans Love A Winner!! 🏁🇺🇸🏁
Mine too! Did you go to hays high school?
I watch this intro every morning. Patton helps me get my day started. As Americans we love to fight. Truer words haven’t been spoken. This video scares the left.
our brave war hero president trump would approve.
My uncle,Sgt. George Thomulka, served in the 101st Airborne,506th Parachute Infantry Division in the Third Army under General Patton. He is the only reason why my uncle made it out of Bastogne and the war alive. Uncle George is a piece of our country's history.
@@trump-totalwar6509 Yeah, he led his "ARMY Jan. 6th, from the WHITE HOUSE "BUNKER" > Ole "Bone spurs" .
I’m not going to lie, we do love to fight. It’s not just in our spirit, it’s in our instinct as not only Americans but as human beings.
@@charletonzimmerman4205 I'll just bet your kids gave you a rousing "You tell Trump off daddy!",as if he'll ever read your comment, or mine. Oh wait, if you are a 'true' dem, your 'woman' (Oh wait, you don't 'own' it, It 'owns' you.) Probably got you to 'Neuter' yourself so it doesn't have to worry about getting it pregnant. It's too bad GOPers resist that, make both sides, a self-limiting disease infesting the planet!
I know Patton was in the Army, but he had the heart of a Marine
@Pedro Ortega No such thing as "was a Marine' They are always Marines.
the only difference between marines and the army is that the marines have a big mouth as you have demonstrated here
@@ImJiom I do not have a big mouth
My Dad fought in the 76th Infantry in Patton's 3rd Army and in the Ardenne's Forest and the Battle of the Bulge.
My Uncle was in the 82nd Airborne and lost half his left lung 3 days after Normandy. Both lived well into their 80's. I was fortunate to be raised by such men.
My uncle was there too. Did not know until the day of his funeral. 18 years old. Montana boy who became a man there under General Patton. God bless them all.
Yes you m were.
"Live for something rather than die for nothing" -Patton💪🇺🇸
Kendrick and Dave Free brought me here
Kendrick brought me back lol classic movie
Great portrayal of the essence of patton....
General Patton was a warrior in every sense of the word, a brilliant strategist and tactician. Nobody understood what war is really all about or what it means to fall in battle, to die a glorious warrior’s death better than General Patton. His seat in Valhalla is guaranteed…
I watched a documentary about General Patton recently. He was dyslexic, and had a terrible time in school. He had to memorize everything in order to "read" his textbooks and lessons. He became "Ol' Blood and Guts" because he had to work twice as hard as his classmates to earn passable grades. Dyslexia was not understood back in his day. It was a source of great shame for those who suffered with it.
Blood and Guts of the poor soldier.
We need more men like this today
Desperately.
amen to that, theirs to many wimps. lol
Say it louder!!!
when this plays out...soon... you are going to get your wish because this is all that will survive
obama got rid of the generals like this over 8yrs and now look at milly
My uncle served under him, was wounded twice,his brother was shot down and spent the last seven months waiting to die in a Nazi POW camp. Jesus, we owe each one of them, especially those buried in European soil, everything good about America. The Europeans, including those in modern Germany, owe those young men everything. Everything.
My uncle was captured at the Battle of the and blamed Patton, but he was an idiot (uncle not Patton).
Well, sorry, but no, pal. We got our ass kicked pretty hard, and became a satellite country of yours. We got bombed, many of our women at the time got raped, our land was looted. I recognize the honest good intentions of the US at the time, the genuine desire not to destroy too needlessy, and how it could have been much worse with other "winners". I have no problem admitting our system, fascism, was pretty bad morally wise. I am glad we cooperate, today. But.... don't expect much gratitude. Not from me, at least. We lost, we dealt with it and moved on. That's the best you should hope for, after all your country got exactly what it wanted out of us. Honestly, every time i see one of our spineless politician celebrate our loss in the war, i am beyond disgusted. I would prefer if we won, and then managed to get rid of the dictators. Unlikely, so i can swallow our defeat as necessary. But if i get drunk and someone, annoyed by my behaviour, beat me up so much i recover my senses i am not going to thank him. Even if had a point, and then he offered his hand to help me stand up after i surrendered.
@@Origami84 hate to sound like I’m in kindergarten but who started it?
@@nhmooytis7058 Against the US? Technically, the japanese did. And is is not a small technicality: all historians agree that the americans, at the time, were enraged against them and didn't really want to fight in Europe too; a feeling more than reciprocated by the european side of the axis. That said, i think i have been more than clear on how the US was not the bad guy in the war, in fact behaving more reasonably than due. But expecting "gratitude" for your defeater is inhuman.... and unreal.
@@Origami84 FDR did want war despite strong isolationist sentiment in the US and in fairness to the Japanese put the screws to them as to their access to oil. Pearl Harbor was a gift to him. However I grew up with the Rape of Nanking drummed into me by my dad. It’s not like pre 1941 the Japanese were just peacefully minding their own business. And the US also was helping Britain as with Lend Lease before actually entering the war.
I wish to God, he would bring the great General Patton back , cuz today's military, sorely needs a hard nosed , bad ass leader, like him and he was a patriot and not a politician, he hated politics and didn't think they had any place in battle, even though the irony of it all, it has always been politicians that has caused any war, since the beginning of time
This performance is so outstanding as you can't even tell he's acting. I feel I'm looking at Patton himself
Yep
Next to U. S. Grant, Patton was one of the few Generals that understood to win a war, you have to kill the other side, no matter how ugly it may get.
old blood and guts...our blood and his guts...lol
@Movie Account i believe Robert E. Lee's father or grandfather served with General Washington...
I think William Tecumseh Sherman got there a bit before 'Sam' Grant did in the ACR. Probably put it more into practical effect also.
There are only two real rules in war...
Rule number one is that people die.
Rule number two is that no one can change rule number one.
The only winners in war are banks and military contractors.
My father served honorably in Patton's Third Army Medical Corp during WW II. I have personal connection to General George S Patton through my father's connection as a one of Patton's officers (service man.) By the time, the Normandy Invasion aka D-Day took place the very early morning of June 6th, 1944. My father was a Major in Patton's Third Army Medical Corp. He landed on "Bloody Omaha" beach the day after D-Day.
My father used to tell me stories about Patton while growing up.
Believe me, I'm not one to enjoy wars. But, sometimes they need to be fought. WW II I make an exception. It had to be fought and it had to be won by our US military and all of our European Allies as well as the French Resistance during WW II. Everyone played an important part to fight against Hitler and his Third Reich.
To add to this comment, my father was awarded the Bronze Star and he was awarded the Croix de Guerra by the French General Charles de Gaulle right after helping to liberate Paris, France. I still have his military medals.
My father used to quote this when I played rec league soccer as a small child. 3 or 5, "wade into them!" "Spill THEIR blood". Seems funny in retrospect. But I'll say the same thing to my son.
Well, you won't tell your grandson you shoveled shit in Louisiana.
When America was America...
Right! Sadly, you are correct.
I came to watch this after the Simone Biles news.
@@jchamber73 I came to watch it after the debacle of the USA at the Olympic games. How much America has fallen, ones it was the greatest country in the world.
I'm not American but I admire the history of that old United States that at one point in history was the best country in the world because of people like General Patton, General McArthur, Admiral Nimitz and so many others from the military and also from the civilian life.
@@lucianonahuelgomez1374 same. As a Canadian, I pity Americans now. It’s so sad to see how so many of them have deluded themselves or allowed themselves to be deluded by the “Grand” Ole Party.
@@Shadowkey392 I would rather bet on wokes to be the dumbest.
I put Scott’s performance in Patton up there with Brando/godfather and De Niro/raging bull
far better ... hands down far better. Scott's performance of Patton was the best, ever.
George Smith Patton was one of the greatest Americans, and war commander in history
I remember watching this movie in junor high., I loved then and love it now.
Same here. All my class mates got a kick out of the speech.
Today's Junior high kids get to watch "Jim becomes Kim, the battle to Transition". It's almost the same.
My dad was in the third army. He took me to see this movie as a kid.
I absolutely love this movie...It was my first time watching George C. Scott in a theater. It was awesome.
That is a great movie!!
I watch the first time around 15 years ago with dvd.
True patriots (true americans) LOVE THE STING OF BATTLE...
Americans love a winner, and will not tolerate a loser!
My father was in the 17th Airborne; he was wounded and sustained permanent injuries to his right hand in the Battle of the Bulge; and he was also awarded the Bronze Star. He thought Patton was the greatest modern general who ever lived and was always grateful that he was fighting on our side.
Ohhh really?
At this time in our history this country could use a few George Patton's.
Oh they're here, just fighting a different type of war....
Then let us RISE UP and kick FEAR in the teeth!
anyone who says anything is labeled an insurrectionist
Sure would, except the Dems would impeach him
@@davidhovey6045 LOL sadly you are correct.
One of my all time favorite movies about one of my all time favorite Generals ,portrayed by one of my all time favorite actors, just doesn't get any better...
KENDRICK LAMAR bro 🫡🤦♂️
My grandfather served with Patton. God bless them both 🙏
My grandfather too combat engineer, with purple heart, bronze star and presidential unit citation...God bless your grandfather and your family...🇺🇲
The day I walked into a recruiting office to join, I felt ten feet tall. The day they said I couldn't serve, broke my heart. It would have been an honor.
Same
You gave it a go at least. It was an uphill battle for me medically, got in but it could’ve gone either way.
If only more Americans were like you, I’m going to parris island this month
You had another important job to do...live life.
If that speech doesn’t amp you up nothing will.
You should the speech in it's original text. It's a helluva lot more motivating than this. They had to dummy it down a bit, to avoid an R rating when the movie came out.
@@shanecrowe5955 This scene actually presents a composite from two separate Patton speeches to the troops. The words are indeed those of the General but were not delivered in the same speech.
The dress uniform George C. Scott wears for this scene displays four stars. Patton did not receive promotion to the rank of full General until April 14th, 1945 when the war was all but over. He would still have been a Lieutenant-General when he would have delivered a speech to the troops.
I was thinking the same thing
The original speech had a lot more cursing in it which Patton was famous for. For instance he doesn't use the word "Fornicating" in his speech, simple guess at what he said instead that starts with an "F." ;)
I’m not American so idgaf
Try to have this speech in this era. They'll be a protest soon after. It's a shame.
And that is why you must never give an inch to those people. They are the enemy. Wade into them.
Challenge accepted
When I was a kid, I memorized this speech for a class assignment.
An "initially peaceful protest" of burned buildings and destroyed "Mom & Pop" shops. : /
I'm surprised this is still on UA-cam!
When he says “anywhere”, I have a feeling he was talking about the USSR.
Yes it's for everyone and USSR. AT the End of the movie, he want to go until Moscow. He don't want stop at Berlin
@@Jelios
As it turns out Patton was 100% right
@@FP194 Hindsight is 2020, but in retrospect it probably would have been better to give the USSR fewer supplies than we did. By the time the Allies were firmly established in Normandy (July '44) the Russians had destroyed Army Group Center on the Eastern front and Germany was doomed. If we gave the Russians significantly fewer supplies the Hungarians, Czechs, the East Germans, Romanians and maybe even some of the Poles could have been spared 50 years of Communism. The Russians wouldn't have broken anyway; their morale was too high. By the end of the war the Red Army was a juggernaut with double the divisions and armor of the Allies in Europe. Patton's idea wasn't feasible in '45.
@@danielwalker6653 When the Japanese surrendered in ww2 the Soviet had a total of about 26,000 tanks and 39,000 aircraft, the majority only just came of the assembly lines in the months after Germany surrendered....
America alone had 63,000 tanks and 146,000 aircraft...
The UK had about 42,000 tanks and 128,000 aircraft.
The Russian's had more manpower armed in europe, however many Russian's were not Russian, the ethnic Russian population in ww2 was about 110million, 20million less then the USA at the time.
Also a standard USA division was about 15,000 to 20,000 men in ww2 the Russian's had about 10,000 to 12,000 at the time, division's are not a good method to figure out the size of an army I believe Russian in 1942 had a a standard division's size of 3,000 men.
Japanese division's in ww2 could be as high as 76,000men.... Not all division's are created equal or keep that way in war.
This speech literally had me motivated and standing at attention.
And I’m not even in the military!
Who is here after Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl announcement.
No round 2. 😂
@@afrikanhippy1 “ Yeah, just LIKE THAT!”
What a beautiful flag
We need more men like Patton today.
We have stud generals
I've always been asked about my great uncle. He was an angry and brilliant bastard. The best angry, brilliant bastard. Love you Uncle George.
Kendrick Lamar brought me here. And let me state unequivocally, as Americans, we hate a loser (Aubrey)
I watch this every day.
Thank you brother.
Everyone should be reminded of how it use to be. ...
Hail hail the truth and true American warriors! This speech is epic. I view often also. With twisted narrative by media, some politicans etc blaming firearms for violent actions by criminal minded individuals, this speech should be our mantra. Current conflict is on our soil this time.
Right on
Linda Hughes 👍
God, we need a Patton today. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Kendrick sent me here
Simply and authentically American.
This man makes me so proud of our country. I honestly didn't believe its possible to feel anymore prouder of America but then this man just floors me.
This man Kendrick Lamar is a whole demon LMAO. There's no way that he referenced this film during a Super Bowl announcement. "You won't have to say 'I shoveled 💩in Louisiana'". Jesus Christ.
😂 Jesus Christ
I cant believe George C. Scott turned down the Oscar for this awesome performance!
Allegedly he didn't like that the Oscars pitted actor against actor for an award.
@@anhalibut John Wayne didn’t think too highly of the Actors Guild either, so this makes a lot of sense
@@seattlesix9953 Yes but John Wayne was a big Phony... didn't even help in WW2
Good Actor and Movies though.
The academy is horse shit and George c scott isnt the only one to realize this and refuse an oscar
@@seattlesix9953 I think John Wayne was 4Fed due to back injuries he suffered during his early acting days.
I love that the real Patton did not typically like swearing in his leisure time and only really swore like a sailor when giving speeches and motivating troops.
Yes necessary for emphasis 😊
Speaking the language of enlisted men
_"You cannot lead an army without profanity, and it must be eloquent profanity. An army without profanity couldn't fight its way out of a piss-soaked paper bag."_
- General George S. Patton
speaking the language of brainwashed men
George C Scott delivers one of the greatest ever screen performances in the history of cinema.
he even refused the oscar he won for it. he knew he didnt need a statue to remind himself. it was a boss performance and he knew it.
Damn you Kendrick
Use me as a "Kendrick brought me here" button
Kendrick brought me here, lmao
No lie but I’m glad to be enlightened
this has got to be the worst way to find out about this movie
I ended up here for a different purpose & got the reference immediately! 😂
@@CarlosRagas-jn9mnexplain please
My great grandpa served under Patton in the 3rd Army. He was a mine sweeper and survived after being shot 3 times. He received 3 Purple Hearts. Every time I watch this scene, I’m constantly reminded that my great grandfather witnessed this speech in real life.
I was in the Air Force in the early 70's. When we went to see a movie at the base theater they would play the National Anthem before the movie with the American flag on the movie screen. We stood up at attention. When they showed 'Patton' they dispensed with that and immediately went to the movie. Of course we all stood up and when George C Scott walked out we all laughed and realized we had been had. It was a different time.
I served in HHC 3rd BDE Tiger Brigade 2nd Armored Division, Fort Hood, Texas. Hellcats that later went to First Cavalry Division. Operation Desert Storm. Patton was our greatest General on armour tactics. He didn't give a damned about political correctness. My kind d of soldier. My Dad served under him in World War Two.
Saw this at the base theater at Kadena AB, Okinawa, in 1970. The large theater had a huge wide screen and this flag made an impression like no other movie opening. Patton strolls up as the bugle plays “To the Colors”, stands at attention, salutes and inspects the assemblage - and us in the theater who straighten up in our seats - with a critical scanning gaze. The camera cuts to images, the pinky ring finger hand salute, riding crop in the left hand, medals, craggy face, medals, revolver with ivory pistol grips and moniker, helmet. His speech, rousing, guttural, patriotic, and his turn to leave as Jerry Goldsmith’s haunting trumpet echos the theme - ancient sounding - of a warrior revisiting 2,000 year old battles.
Now we are the Kasserine pass, wait, where are the Sherman’s and PZKW4’s? On to the Bulge, devoid of Panthers and Tigers. Patton becomes like a radio play where we have to use our imagination to fill in historic details. Oh well, there was the opening - six minutes of glory.
All-time smack-running world champion.
Tactically, the man was a genius and far ahead of his predecessors in his advocacy of operational maneuver warfare. He saw the value of it before the invention of the tank - chasing Pancho Villa around in a car with a machine gun mounted on it. Guderian, Rommel, Montgomery and de Gaulle were all later adopters of the use of mobile firepower than GSP.
As a result, despite his nickname, "Ol' Blood and Guts", units under his command actually suffered fewer casualties than other, more cautious and conservative generals. He understood that movement is life when bullets are flying.
He had shortcomings, certainly. He was completely unskilled at military politics. He did not appreciate or even recognize that the military is subservient to civilian authority, as well as an instrument of it. He failed to implement the discipline in himself which he demanded of his troops. His personal politics were, ummm, uncomfortably close to those of the enemy.
But, he certainly deserves to be remembered as the superb instrument of battle that he in fact was.
Watch this movie with your kids and grand-kids. Let's get them started on off - RIGHT !
For those that rebuke it, correct them.
AMEN!
If you mean watching great movies, sure. Other than that, leave that for them to decide
You want them to get started on off ¿ ... the bug spray you mean .
@elli003. I like your comment! 👍👍👍
Coming from a Military family..
My son still serving. AH-64 pilot...
My grandpa was a Scout Ranger in Europe for the American Army during WW2.
Thank you Chelsea for your comment and your grandpa
(Hello from France)
Just watched this yesterday.
I love this movie.
My Grandfather server under this man in the North Africa Campaign.
Best Motivational Speaker of all time....
3:19 is the single most metal thing I have ever heard.
Saw this movie on an army base in Munich Germany. One of my favorite movies.
❤️❤️
This was a highly sanitized version of the real speech
The current crop of generals: "Everybody gets a participation trophy!"
Especially the drag queens.
or "i want to understand white rage"
One of our best military minds. My uncle and a friend of the family were a part of Patton's regiment. Patton was one tough SOB but he got the job.
Rommel I read your damn book! 😆
One of THE BEST speeches ever!
This should be shown to all students on the first day of school every year.
