Patton had it 100% correct, and the sooner that we learn that, in dealing with the "radical Islamist" the better off we will be.......,IMHO.

The best fighting general we had in ww2. I stop at his museum at Chiriaco Pass every time I go by.

There's a Patton museum at Chiriaco Pass? Where's that. it's not the one on the way to Tucson is it? If it is, I'm riding down there as soon as I get back to AZ.

I always stop at Rooster Cogburn's Ostrich Farm near Chiriaco "mountain" to tease those big, nasty feathered fuckers - last time I was there one of them bit the hell out of my finger!

Bob, You're thinking of Picacho Peak, the site of the only civil war action in Arizona. Chiriaco Pass is on I10 About 30 miles before Indio. A building with a lot of World War Two items, and a compound full of tanks. It's a very interesting Place. Can't miss it a big statue of the General is out front with his dog.
