General Patton and His Dog Willie

General Patton was a bad-ass, so naturally, he had a bad-ass dog. He was a Bull Terrier, he was named after William the Conqueror, and he followed Patton everywhere.

Patton and his dog had a special bond and Willie was loyal to the end.

Enjoy the pictures and read more about Willie -- HERE.
