Smitty was General George Patton's driver. Despite Smitty's constant complaints and pleas, Patton made himself (and Smitty) a visible target for the German Freedom Front when they drove around, pleas that Patton did not heed. When a Werewolf agent attacked their jeep with a Panzerschreck in September 1945, Smitty survived, but Patton did not.
Smitty's worst injury was that his teeth tore through his lower lip when he was thrown clear from the jeep. He was able to get back to his wife and two children back in the States.[1]
