READERS IN FRANCE

What a surprise to find this morning 67 of the day's readers are in France! I can only conclude the interest lies in the blog about General Patton. He must have been both loved and hated by the French. That is the way war is: the winning side must destroy the innocent to defeat the evil. Patton was killed in Germany and was buried in Luxembourg. His body could not be brought back to the States and his widow would one day be denied her burial beside her husband. Eventually the family transported her ashes secretly and scattered them over the general's grave. 

If you haven't yet purchased Killing Patton, ask Santa to bring you a copy of it. You never know when you might be chosen to appear as a contestant on Jeopardy. You will learn much from this book.
