How could you forget Patton SLAPPED A Post Traumatically Stressed soldier?

(Don’t all military people slap wounded warriors around? Maybe that was the 1960s message the directors wanted to send, that US military are baby killers & soldier slappers) (And the UN is our only hope)

The “7th Army soldier slap” incident is a matter of historical record, and Patton was not only forced to publicly apologize but Eisenhower relieved him and left him in limbo for about 10 months.
