Lionel Murton: Third Army Chaplain
Quotes
-
Patton : I want a prayer... A weather prayer.
Third Army Chaplain : A weather prayer, sir?
Patton : Yes... Let's see if we can't get God helping us with this thing.
Third Army Chaplain : It'll take a pretty thick rug for that kind of prayer.
Patton : I don't care if it takes a flying carpet.
Third Army Chaplain : I don't know how this is going to be received, General, praying for good weather so we can kill our fellow man?
Patton : Well, I can assure you, sir, because of my intimate relations with the Almighty, if you write a good prayer, we'll have good weather. I expect that prayer within an hour.
Third Army Chaplain : Yes, sir.
