本集简介

Months after Patton's removal from command in Sicily, Eisenhower appoints Patton commander of the First Army Group, a fictitious army in England to fool the Germans about the Allies' real plans for the D-Day invasion of Normandy in 1944. Weeks later in command of Third Army, Patton helps spearhead the breakout as U.S. forces smash through the German lines using their blitzkrieg tactics.

As American forces fight their way across France in 1944, Patton is ordered to halt before completely trapping a German army. Later pushing toward Paris, the city is liberated by the Free French armored division and not the Third Army under Patton's leadership. Patton's troops come within 60 miles of the German border by summer's end in 1944.
