GENERAL PATTON’S SPEECH

By Harvey Tobkes

We need to learn to avoid military conflict overseas and focus on the strength of our country here at home. But should an enemy come against us, we need to engage them with only one goal, bring them down to defeat and unconditional surrender.

Unfortunately, military leaders with the no-fail mind-set of General George S. Patton are abhorred in peacetime and adored in time of war.

We need them now but they are nowhere to be found, so let us hope that somehow, in future years, this country can produce men like him to lead us in war and peace.
