Thanks for the ping, Cannoneer No. 4. Unless my memory is totally failing me, Patton III was the CG of VII Corps when I was in the FRG 1978-81. I recall much was made of the fact his HQ was in the same town (Stuttgart) where Rommel's son was the mayor of the town. It was said they had a fine relationship that was founded on mutual respect of their fathers' wartime rivalry.

Thanks, now that you mention it, I remember that story.
