photograph of george s. patton as he urinated into the rhine river, march 1945

Later, he sent the following communique to Eisenhower: "Dear SHAEF, I have just pissed into the Rhine River. For God's sake, send some gasoline." This photo is the edited version (Patton's urine stream has been eliminated by an Army censor).

warum nur werde ich ganz sauer bei der Vorstellung, dass da 1945 jemand auf meinen Rhein gepisst hat?
