Which military leader are you?

Hmmm...I got a Patton result, as well.

Straffo: John Paul Jones, commanding the Bonhomme Richard , is the american naval captain who strode the blood-soaked decks, raked by cannon and musket fire, his ship taking on water after 2 or 3 broadsides from the HMS Serapis. Seeing the American ship in a sinking condition, The captain of the English ship called on Jones' to surrender. JPJ's response was "I have not yet begun to fight!"

With that, the american's boarded and captured the Serapis, just as the Bonhomme Richardwas sinking.

Odd. If asked who I admire the most, Teddy R and Patton are clearly my answers.

But the test says I'm Wesley Clark, go figger.
