Jean Gordon (Red Cross) Jean Gordon, a niece by marriage of General Patton, was a Boston socialite and a Red Cross worker during World War II. She presumably had an ongoing affair with Patton, allegedly beginning years before the war and continuing behind the front lines of wartime Europe. She committed suicide shortly after his death. However, the contending story is that she was despondent over a young officer who had broken off their wartime affair.
