What Patton Did When He Found Out His Soldiers Executed 50 SS Guards January 4th, 1945. A frozen morning in Luxembourg.

General George Smith Patton stood with his back to the room, warming his hands, his breath visible in the frigid air. The man entering the room carried something that could destroy everything old blood and guts had built. A major from the inspector general’s office stepped forward, nervous, clutching a thick manila folder stamped top secret. Inside were sworn statements, ballistic reports, photographs of bodies in the snow, and a list of names. It was a formal investigation file documenting a massacre not committed by the Nazis but by soldiers of the United States Army. The major cleared his throat and placed the file on the heavy oak desk. He expected an immediate order for courts marshal……………………….
