About this Model: In December 1944, the German army had been retreating since its defeat in Normandy five months earlier. But at 5.00am on December 16th the German artillery suddenly bombarded the peaceful Ardennes front, initiating what came to be known as the Battle of the Bulge. It was the greatest pitched battle ever fought by the Americans, and their only major struggle in the dead of winter. Before it was over, they had suffered over 80,000 casualties. |
