Patton was a genius tactician likely with OCD (a Mozart) but everyone who was close to him thought him a bully and most despised him as a person. Staff knew to present only idealized images of him. Most executives of corporations are similar to Patton (tacticians), but the bulk of leadership resides hidden in support staff. It's rare to find tacticians (or strategists) who are also good leaders. Bradley likely provided more actual leadership than did Patton.
