Patton Was The Most Feared American General In Germany — And The US Kept Benching Him

German military intelligence maintained detailed assessments of every major Allied commander throughout the war. They rated Eisenhower as competent, Bradley as methodical, and Montgomery as cautious. Patton received an entirely different classification. German General Gunther Blumentritt wrote after the war that Patton was the only Allied commander who consistently identified what the Germans were executing and attacked it directly before they could complete it. Rommel's own staff specifically avoided sectors where Patton's forces were operating. Despite this, the United States Army relieved Patton of command twice. After the war, multiple senior German generals stated that each of Patton's removals was among the greatest unintentional gifts America gave Germany during the entire conflict. Germany still lost.
