His tenacity and aggressiveness pushed the German armies so fast they had basically no time to mount an effective defense. It was all they could do to escape Patton's army.

SPC Woody Bullard - You are right. US armor doctrine was to support the infantry, but he changed that doctrine in a few days and used armor for the point of attack. His brilliance shines in military history.
