General George S. Patton was a man who believed the American soldier was the most sacred asset on the battlefield. When his men bled to liberate Europe, he demanded that Europe show them the respect they had earned.

But during the freezing, brutal campaigns of late 1944, a local French official decided that the pristine floors of his requisitioned building were more important than the lives of dying American GIs. When the official locked the doors and left the wounded to freeze in the mud, he thought his political authority would protect him. He was dead wrong.

Discover the terrifying, explosive moment when General Patton arrived on the scene and proved that, in his theater of war, the blood of an American soldier outranks any politician.
