Soon after, in a stunning announcement by General Dwight Eisenhower, Commanding General, US Expeditionary Forces, Patton was ordered to apologize to the entire Seventh Army Group, with as many of the men as possible assembled in the main square in Messina, Sicily. Immediately afterward, he was ‘reassigned’ to England without a command; all taking place, incredibly, on the eve of the invasion of Italy.
