Default Another US General

He once said this:

"My men can eat their belts - but my tanks gotta have gas!"

Under heavy critisism in US media for keeping ex-nazis working with the ocupation government in Germany post WW 2 he said:

"I prefer to have the German people fed by ex-nazis instead of starving to death in a democratic way".

He visited Sweden in 1912 and 1946. In 1946 he visited the 8th Inf Regt in Uppsala and Royal Military Academy Karlberg in Stockholm.

Seeing the 8th Inf Regt Colours and beeing told the history of the Swedish Army he said:

"Hell, those guys were waging war already before Columbus discovered America!"

But what did he do in Sweden in 1912?
