quote was " Give me that 400,000 Gallons and I'll go through Europe like shit through a goose " This was Montgomery's memoir's
"If I had to choose between food or gas I will choose gas, my men can eat their belts but my tanks need fuel"
Eisenhower to Patton: "you are to bypass Trier because its heavily defended and will require at least 4 Divisions to capture"; Patton to Eisenhower: "have taken Trier with 2 Divisions; what do you want me to do, give it back?"
"I have a lot of faults . . . but ingratitide isn't one of them." I think this line just changed my life very, very slightly.
