Patton Piercing lens

Anachronism: A 1948 Packard parked in front of the helicopter.
Anachronism: Post-war tanks are used in major war scenes in North Africa. The German army used the M48 tank (1953), and the US army used the M47 (1952). Interestingly, the latter was named "Patton 1" (Patton 1).
Error found: In a scene after Patton’s speech, a child tried to steal the ring of a dead soldier. When he left, some scorpions could be seen crawling onto the soldier. In response, the muscles on his arm/shoulder twitched.
Patton is looking at the battlefield with binoculars. When facing the lens, he can see the shadows reflected by various lights/microphones and other equipment on the lens of the telescope.
An anachronism: On the European map of the headquarters, it can be seen that the map of Germany has been divided into East Germany and West Germany. All national borders are divided after World War II.
Facts are wrong: When General Montgomery was told that Patton had occupied Palermo, Sicily, the Union Jack behind him was reversed.
Coherence: A German soldier is writing down the number of casualties. He uses a comma to mark the thousands, just like the British are accustomed. Later, it was the same soldier who used cycles in thousands, which was like the habit of the Germans.
Error found: During the locals watching the Moroccan army parade, in every shot, a little boy can be seen making faces and waving at the camera.
Error found: During the first war, he was inspecting the battlefield. The binoculars he used were obviously labeled "Japan"   .

Patton quotes

  • Patton: There's only one proper way for a professional soldier to die: the last bullet of the last battle of the last war.

  • [last lines]

    Patton: [voiceover] For over a thousand years, Roman conquerors returning from the wars enjoyed the honor of a triumph - a tumultuous parade. In the procession came trumpeters and musicians and strange animals from the conquered territories, together with carts laden with treasure and captured armaments. The conqueror rode in a triumphal chariot, the dazed prisoners walking in chains before him. Sometimes his children, robed in white, stood with him in the chariot, or rode the trace horses. A slave stood behind the conqueror, holding a golden crown, and whispering in his ear a warning: that all glory is fleeting.
