My Step-father (Daddy)...anti-tank gun crewman, Battle of the Bulge survivor... Today, in 1944 marked the start of the Battle Of The Bulge, lasting nearly six weeks, it was one of the bloodiest battles of World War II. Allied Forces faced a surprise counter-offensive by German forces in the densely wooded Ardennes region of Belgium. The attack was designed to cut off key elements of the Allied Forces and drive the offensive all the way to the coast. Despite the extraordinarily difficult circumstances and being out-gunned and out-numbered, the US Army held and ultimately pushed back the Germans to their original line.
