Patton Forward Observers is a story told by a unique collection of highly trained artillery observers who fought every step of the war with Patton’s famed Third Army. We remember Patton today only through the service of men like these. This is a soldier’s story. Derived from wartime letters and oral histories told by the veterans themselves, we see the classic American Army experience of World War II–the friendships, courage, terror, carnage, humor and ultimate victory that all part of the Patton legend–a legend build by soldiers.
