You Too Can Smell Like A WW2 Hero: Smell Like Patton!
http://images-undertheradar.military...toncologne.jpg
Did General George S. Patton smell like blend of lavender, citrus, coconut, cedar, sage, tonka bean, bergamot and lime? And what Pentagon official decided to license the scent in the first place? Congrats to Military Times who discovered a two-year-old product that none of us had ever heard of, write a really funny article about Patton (the scent) and have it go viral with a big article in the UK’s Daily Mail. If you want to smell like Old Blood & Guts yourself, there’s still a few bottles available on clearance at Amazon***8203;.com SOURCE |
Too late, US Army. The Federation's already got you beat with its patented line of celebrity skincare...

I always got a kick out of Stars and Stripes cartoonist Bill Mauldins' portrait of Patton when he served under him. Mauldin observed; "I always admired Patton. Oh, sure, the stupid bastard was crazy. He was insane. He thought he was living in the Dark Ages. Soldiers were peasants to him. I didn't like that attitude, but I respected his theories and techniques he used to get his men out of their foxholes." General George Patton once summoned Mauldin to his office and threatened to "throw his ass in jail" for "spreading dissent," this after one of Mauldin's cartoons made fun of Patton's demand that all soldiers must be clean-shaven at all times, even in combat. But Dwight Eisenhower, Supreme Commander European Theater, told Patton to leave Mauldin alone, because he felt that Mauldin's cartoons gave the soldiers an outlet for their frustrations. |
Lmfao I actually want to buy this.

Boldly smelling where no man has smelled before.

By the way, why should Patton and Kirk get all the glory? Time to give Dugout Doug his due. :cool:

Patton was a bit of an eccentric in that regard.
"No bastard ever won a war by applying cologne on himself. He won it by applying it on the enemy." "An army is a team. It lives, eat, sleeps, smells as a team. This "Obsession by Calvin Klein" stuff is just bull&^!@." "It is absurd to believe that soldiers who cannot be made to use the proper cologne can be induced to move forward in battle. Officers who fail to perform their duties by correcting musky man odors and enforcing proper BO are incapable of attracting the ladies." "May God have mercy on my armpits, because I won't." "Wars may be fought with deodorants, but they are won with antiperspirants." "A pint of cologne will save a gallon of shampoo." "Magnificent! Compared to Clive Christian Imperial Majesty for men, all other forms of cologne shrink to insignificance! God help me, I need a book deal to pay for this!" "Cheap spray-on colognes are monuments to the stupidity of man." "And when we get to Berlin, I will personally make that paper-hanging son-of-a-bitch Hitler FABULOUS!" |
Rommel, you magnificent bastard... I used your cologne!

Needs more diesel oil

To be honest, if they made a cologne that smelled like a mix of high octane racing fuel, and exhaust gasses, I'd buy it by the gallon.
And probably use it to save money on gas |
Let's step outside the square here.
Leave the gasoline and diesel dousing of your cheeks and neck for a minute and think of the touch of masculinity you can attain by applying this: http://www.freakingnews.com/pictures...gne--64233.jpg |
