Today, December 16th, marks the 60th anniversary of the beginning of the Battle of the Bulge, Germanys last major offensive of World War II. It was a bitter campaign, fought in the dead of winter in the most appalling conditions imaginable. Its ultimate failure is a testament to the heroism of the Allied troops determined to stop the Nazi war machine at all costs.
