Talk:Alexander Patch

Decorations

I'm looking for some U.S. generals, while I noticed that you never see General Alexander M. Patch with his medal. There is no picture of him on the Internet with its fifteen medals/ribbons on his chest. Does anyone know why he has handled this way? I personally find it good, is not a criticism of its General Patch!

Cashiered

Rick Atkinson notes in GUNS AT LAST LIGHT that Patch wasn't just transferred from the Pacific, but was "almost cashiered" for blabbing about code-breaking efforts that led to the assassination of Admiral Yamamoto. Seems like a major omission from the article.68.144.172.8 (talk) 19:33, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
