Many people often associate the rough voice of George C. Scott with General George S. Patton's persona, but his real voice was actually quite different.
Listen and enjoy.

Patton - Victory Banquet
I always liked this part of the movie "Patton."
If more intelligent minds in our government had listened to Patton, perhaps we would not have the world in such a state today.
Translator: Excuse me, sir. General Capcoc would like to know whether you will join him to drink to the surrender of Germany?
Patton: My compliements to the general. Please inform him that I do not care to drink with him or any other Russian son of a bitch.
Translator: [Nervous] Sir, I, I cannot tell the general that.
Patton: You tell him that. Tell him word for word.
Translator: [In Russian] He says he does not care to drink with you or any other Russian son of a bitch.
Russian general: [In Russian] Tell him he is a son of a bitch, too. Now!
Translator: [Very nervous] The General says he thinks that you are a son of a bitch, too.
Patton: [Laughing] Okay. I'll drink to that; one son of a bitch to another.

Patton - "Give Me 400 000 Gallons"
This is the kind of girt, determination, and guts we need running our military. Fat chance of that happening anymore (for at least the next four years) with Barack HUSSEIN Obama (aka Little Barry Soetoro)

General Patton vs. Harry Reid
I just found this on YouTube. It is a contrast between the dedication of a great leader like General George S. Patton (George C. Scott) and Harry Reid (aka Pinko). Feel free to discuss it.
I am afraid Harry Reid will have more power now that Barack HUSSEIN Obama (aka Little Barry Soetoro) is going to be running things.

George C. Scott as General George S. Patton
I remember when George C. Scott won the Academy Award for Best Actor for "Patton." He refused to accept the award and send, if my memory serves me, an American Indian woman to pick it up.
His portrayal of Patton was one of the greatest of his career. Below is his speech to his troops that was the opening scene of the movie.
It was in reality, a combination of various speeches he had given over the years.
Now sit back and enjoy. I know if you are a red-blooded American, you will LOVE it!!!
"Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity." - George S. Patton
