This is one of those fascinating crossover topics - Patton competed in the Modern Pentathlon* at the 1912 Stockholm Olympic Summer Games. He finished in 5th place. He wasn't a very good shot. Had he been a better shot, he might have won an Olympic Gold Medal. Would history have changed had he been a Gold Medal winner? We'll never know.
*Modern Pentathlon consists of swimming, fencing, shooting, equestrian and running.
