Speaking of Patton, I just finished _General Patton: A Soldier's Life_, by
Stanley
Hirshson,
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0060009837/qid=1065486972.

It was pretty good. He was an interesting guy. I've read a couple other
books on him, as well as the one of his published posthumously, but
I've never seen any of his poetry before. It didn't do a lot for me, but
it's
an interesting contrast to his more public persona. And, sadly, I've
never been much of a poetry person.

Did you ever have anything to with him, Art, or meet up with people who
did?

Regards,

Mike Beede
