I found this to be a funny history lesson. I apologize if it is in any sort of a violation of the T&C.

This is a riot. I have a feeling most teens today would learn more from the few minutes watching that than sitting in class with a book on the matter.

You know what, you are probably correct. I am glad somebody else enjoyed it.
I actually learned something from it. I didn't know that Patton died in a car accident.
www.armchairgeneral.com...
On December 9, 1945, in Germany a day before he was due to return to the United States, Patton was severely injured in a road accident. He and his
chief of staff, Major General Hobart R. "Hap" Gay, were on a daytrip to hunt pheasants in the country outside Mannheim.
Their 1939 Cadillac Model 75 was driven by PFC Horace Woodring (1926 - 2003). Patton sat in the back seat, on the right with General Gay on his left,
as per custom. At 11:45 near Neckarstadt, (Käfertal), a 2½ ton truck driven by T/5 Robert L. Thompson appeared out of the haze and made a left-hand
turn towards a side road. The Cadillac smashed into the truck. General Patton was thrown forward and his head struck a metal part of the partition
between the front and back seats. Gay and Woodring were uninjured.
Paralyzed from the neck down, George Patton died of an embolism on December 21, 1945 at the military hospital in Heidelberg, Germany with his wife
present
