    ALEXANDER M. CARELL PATCH, JR. General, U.S. Army, Retired SMA Faculty 1920-1928 and 1932-1936 (1889 – 1945) Alexander M. “Sandy” Patch (23 November 1889 – 21 November 1945) was born on Fort Huachuca, a military post in Arizona where his father commanded a detachment. He never considered any career other than the army, and received his appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY, in 1909. He wanted to follow his father into the cavalry, but realizing that it was becoming obsolete, he instead chose the infantry, into which he was commissioned in 1913. In World War I, Patch served as an infantry officer and as an instructor in the Army's machine gun school. While he was commanding troops on the front line in France, his leadership came to the attention of George Marshall, then a member of General John J. Pershing's staff. General Patch was on the faculty of Staunton from 1920 -1928 as Professor of Military Science and then from 1932 – 1936 as Commandant of Cadets and Professor of Military Science. World War II During the buildup before the United States' entry into World War II, General Marshall was appointed Chief of Staff of the United States Army. He promoted Patch to brigadier general, and sent him to Fort Bragg, North Carolina, to supervise the training of new soldiers there. Pacific Theater Patch was promoted to major general on 10 March 1942. In that year, he was sent to the Pacific Theater of Operations to organize the reinforcement and defense of New Caledonia.
