The first movie, "Patton", that G.C. Scott starred in also, is one of my favorites. And I love the music from it......

I saw this movie. Not bad but a somewhat suppressed performance by Scott, I thought.

What station would ALN be? What's it called?
I met Mrs. Patton a couple of times. She was a beautiful and gracious lady. I bought the General's 1937 one-eighty, six wheeled Packard convertible from her. Patton could be seen about town from time to time.

Ditto. Actually it was kinda a bummer to watch too.
I prefer the ending of the original 1970 movie.
Patton just fading back into history as it were. :kilroy:
