The Battle of Bermuda Bridge
Funny story about 400,00 US troops doing war games in Louisiana, when three boys ages 9 to 14, brought Patton's 500 car convoy to a halt with a Big-Bang carbide cannon until referees got there and stopped the battle.

I was surprised, on that day Patton was a Major General, and Ike was a Colonel.
