Think there are many other guys with screws loose. Please see below (from a google search):
"Before the war, America had depicted the Soviet Union as almost the devil-incarnate. The Soviet Union had depicted America likewise so their ‘friendship’ during the war was simply the result of having a mutual enemy - Nazi Germany. In fact, one of America’s leading generals, Patton, stated that he felt that the Allied army should unite with what was left of the Wehrmacht in 1945, utilise the military genius that existed within it (such as the V2’s etc.) and fight the oncoming Soviet Red Army."
"Kennan’s measured tone put him at odds with many. There were some on the left -- including Henry Wallace, a former vice president of the United States who ran for president on the pro-Soviet American Labor Party ticket in 1948 -- who wanted to uncontain communist expansion. And there were some on the right -- starting with, but not limited to, Gen. George S. Patton -- who wanted “rollback,” driving the Reds all the way back to Moscow."
"Even so, he delivered good results by breaking through German lines in France with his 3rd Army--in spite of constant arguments with the high command over supply allocations. He was also successful in the Battle of the Bulge and rolled into Czechoslovakia (with the intention of continuing into Soviet territory) but was forced to withdraw."
"On May 5, the people of Prague launched an uprising against the German troops there and asked for Patton's help, but Eisenhower ordered him to stay put. Four days later, the Red Army entered Prague. In allowing the Soviets to liberate Prague, Eisenhower had placed military considerations over politics. He would later be criticized for this decision, because with Prague in Soviet hands the country soon fell under communist domination."
"Following the end of World War II, Patton the Elder predicted that there would be conflict between the US and USSR. These are well-known. Mitchell and Patton were dragged over the coals for their prophetic remarks."
"In 1945 two future world powers sat astride what would later become the iron curtain. There was no love lost between these two, however a conflict was avoided, and a European peace was established which lasts to this day. Though General Patton was eager to fight the communists, the western alliance of the USA, Great Britain, Canada, and France chose not to attack, probably realizing that to do so would be suicidal."
"In addition, this region was controlled by the Third U.S. Army, which was led by General George S. Patton, whose anti-Communist beliefs were widely known. In fact, Patton's wish to continue the war (this time against the Soviets) was a much publicized "scandal," which was played up in the papers- the Editor."
