It was Hitlers boldest moveand the Allies most shocking surprise. Its winter hell on Earth. Up close and brutal. As far as Shootouts go, this ones the biggest and bloodiest the U.S. ever fought. The Axis of Evil creates an 85-mile bulge along the Western front that extends from the North Sea down to Switzerland. Hitlers mission: drive a wedge between the Allied armies in the north and south. Retake the seaport city of Antwerp. Claim victory.

The Americans not only fight Germans but the weather: minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit - the coldest winter on record in Europe. In some places, the snow is knee deep. In other spots, snow cover is sparse but the wind chill is severe. Foxholes become frozen tombs. Frostbite takes 15,000 men off the line.

We will follow the U.S. troops who defend the bulge and then reclaim it. Well feature the Intelligence and Reconnaissance Platoon and the 2nd Infantry Regiment, who fend off German troops the first day of battle to the 1st Battalion, 517th Parachute Regimental Combat Team and the 551st Parachute Infantry Battalion who push the enemy out of Belgium.

After six weeks of hellish combat, the Battle of the Bulge pulverizes Hitlers forces on the Western Front and aids the Allies in winning the war.

  • @mindawareness Who'd have thought? In war, people die brutally and violently...here I always thought war consisted of lollipops and kisses

  • What a shitty documentry, they interviewd US veterans and now thats all very well but not a singel German veteran? instead they get this random guy? meh...

  • if the germans did the beyonet charge they would of said the mercilousy germans take no POWS all are bad.

  • @mindawareness For one thing if you only stabbed once the german might pull out a p-38 and kill you before he expired. War has always been brutal it's not politicaly correct. sometimes men would have to bash in anothers head with there entrenching shovels.

  • @fixdeluxe1 Chek out the "biggest tank battles in history" series. there is veterans from both sides sharing their stories.

  • @mindawareness Tell that to the US Soldiers lined up and massacred by the Germans at Malmedy. Better yet, tell that to the jews of Europe. You don't take evil a prisoner at risk of your own life, you kill it like you would a fly.

  • @mindawareness they did both,,, as germans did to americans when they had the chance, apperently you are typical euro trash that likes to bad mouth americans, my brother in laws dad served in the eto,, he sad the germans were "tough bastards" .... he would use anything he could to kil as many as he could during the war.

  • @Nemisish Serious balls!!

  • @98vanguard Huh? Seriously, you just posted nonsense really! Did you forget to mention WWI or the Spanish American War? But seriously what does you post matter? Learn how to spell ACTUALLY! Just google it.
