	George S. Patton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Patton was an intelligent child, intensively studying classical literature and military history from a young age, but likely suffered from an undiagnosed case of dyslexia, the consequences of which would haunt him throughout his schooling.
		However, while Patton was temporarily relieved of his duty, his prolonged stay in Sicily was interpreted by the Germans to be indicative of an upcoming invasion of southern France and later, a stay in Cairo was interpreted as an upcoming invasion through the Balkans.
		Patton was still senior to Eisenhower, in the Regular Army, but this was soon not the case in the growing draft army (known as the Army of the United States).
