December 16 will mark the 73rd anniversary of the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge.
In 1944 the Nazis Launched a desperate offensive, and set in motion a battle that was to achieve epic proportions.
The battle was destined to involve over a million men and to precipitate the greatest crisis the American army faced since Lee invaded Pennsylvania. It involved the most egregious failure in the history of American battlefield intelligence, and would become the greatest battle ever fought by the United States Army.
It was not to be a battle of well-planned maneuver, or grand strategy. No, it would be a battle of improvisation, desperate effort, and undaunted courage under the worst possible conditions.
