About Patton’s Panthers

Sasser’s Patton’s Panthers tells the powerful true story of the African American 761st Tank Battalion during World War II. The battalion fought for 183 consecutive days, engaging in key offensives under General Patton, including at the Battle of the Bulge.

They defeated over 6,000 enemy soldiers, captured thirty towns, and liberated concentration camps, making history as the first African American armored unit to serve in combat.

This heroic tale highlights the 761st's legacy of courage, resilience, and the fight for equality in the U.S. military. Their motto, “Come Out Fighting,” reflects their determination to overcome both enemy forces and racial discrimination.
