How General Patton's granddaughter is honoring his legacy

History books will forever speak of the countless heroics and astonishing life of General George S. Patton. He'll always be remembered as the Army officer who became an Olympian, the "Bandit Killer" at Columbus, the "Father of Armor" in WWI, and the liberator of Europe. It's hard for anyone to stand in that shadow, but Helen Patton, his granddaughter, would have made him extremely proud.

Like every member of the Patton family, Helen has done many great things with her life while also carrying the torch for her father and grandfather. From attending ceremonies commemorating WWII anniversaries to heading up the Patton Foundation, which aids returning troops and veterans in need, Helen continues the Patton tradition of giving to our great country.
