Sorry for posting so closely, but I think I found a bit more... The Article where Col G N Patton is mentioned also talks about his son Neal being in the ROTC. There was a Neal Patton, 16th Air Force vice Commander in 96, and commander of Shaikh Isa Air Base during Desert Storm.

We might be onto something, here!
