On the 16th of December 1944, Adolf Hitler launched his last desperate offensive, to try and win the war in the West – codenamed “Wacht am Rhein” (Watch on the Rhine). This later became widely known as “The Battle of the Bulge”

Therefore -yet another German lightning strike, through the rugged and seemingly impenetrable, heavily forested Belgian Ardennes, during the coldest winter since records began, against ill-prepared, battle weary, resting American troops, who held a very thin defensive line, on the Belgian/German border…….

December 2019 is the 75th anniversary of the “Battle of the Bulge”

After a massive artillery barrage at 5.30 a.m, the huge German armoured columns, with supporting Grenadiers (Infantry), pressed forward and attacked, therefore rapidly overwhelming shocked American Infantry in their foxholes.

Later, this became widely and famously known as “The Battle of the Bulge”, because of the “bulge” it caused on the situation map

Battle of the Bulge Tours – WHITECROSS BATTLEFIELD TOURS – I will show you the evidence of this extreme carnage, still evident, on the forest floors and deep valleys of the now tranquil and beautiful Ardennes region.

FOXHOLES – Hundreds of foxholes lay empty and long lines of trenches still exist – most untouched and undiscovered, for over 74 years. (because thousands of unexploded mines, grenades and shells, still lie beneath the surface)

CLOSE COMBAT – Locations where hand-to-hand combat and house-to-house fighting, was a daily occurrence, during the Battle of the Bulge !

BATTLEFIELD EVIDENCE – I will show you rusty battlefield debris, still laying on the forest floor, after 75 years !

SHELL CRATORS – In addition to this, hundreds of shell crators can be observed on the forest floor.

MINEFIELDS – A place where tens of thousands of mines exploded.

Places where thousands of young American soldiers lost their lives, having being shelled mercifully by German artillery, enduring tree-bursts amongst the freezing, fog drenched, dripping pines.

I will show you a location where American G.I’S (M.I.A’s) remains have been discovered, decades later, after being tragically killed on the 16th of December 1944 (Northern Shoulder)

LOCATIONS

PEIPER – We follow the narrow route through the Ardennes, taken by fanatical S.S Colonel Joachim Peiper’s massive 25km long armoured column, (Kampfgruppe Peiper), at the beginning of the “Battle of the Bulge”.

All the way from the Northern shoulder, near Losheim in Germany, to the Ardennes villages of Cheneux, Stoumont and La Gleize, in Belgium

where the advance was dramatically halted by U.S forces. (An original and very impressive, restored, 68 ton King Tiger Tank from the battle is studied here) (Dollinger’s Tiger)

SIEGFRIED LINE – A fine example of “Dragon’s Teeth” of the Westwall (Siegfried Line), on the Belgian/German border, bomb crators from the initial German heavy artillery barrage and a large quantity of untouched foxholes.

BATTLEFIELD EVIDENCE

10th ARMORED – BASTOGNE – Photo below, shows me guiding the family of a 10th Armored veteran, (CCB tanker) around Bastogne and showing them U.S foxholes, in late early November 2018.

It was a very satisfying moment, when I found this fired M1 garand rifle bullet, on the edge of a G.I’s foxhole, near Marvie, as I was looking for a piece of shrapnel for them.

This bullet popped out of the ground 74 years after it was fired here. Therefore -a great piece of history for the family, to take back to the United States!
