The battle of the bulge

The battle of the bulge started on December 16 1944 when a massive German counterattack roared through the ardennes forest in southern Belgium.The Germans had begun that with luck would cut the allied army in two.The Germans  encircled the American held city of bastonge and pushed a 60 mile "bulge"into the allied line in just a few days.

However,by December 25 the German assault had been stopped and the allies were regrouping to destroy "the bulge".The main allied objective was to relieve bastonge.The link up was made at the beginning of January but German resistance in "the bulge" didn't end until the beginning of febuary.
