But during World War II, Patton chose speed over safety.

In this episode, we break down how Third Army outran its supply lines after the Normandy breakout, exploited weaknesses in the German defenses, and reached the German border weeks ahead of schedule. Discover the hidden logistics tricks, fuel shortages, Red Ball Express operations, captured German supplies, and the psychological warfare that shocked Field Marshal Walter Model.
