Jeff is joined by Dr. John Moser, Professor of History, to discuss the pivotal Battle of the Bulge – or Ardennes Offensive – that turned out to be Nazi Germany’s last major offensive of World War 2 in northwest Europe. Catching the Allied armies by surprise, Hitler’s army pushed deep behind friendly lines, only to be stopped by the weather, lack of supplies, and the stout defensive fighting of American and British forces.
Learn about this great battle in recognition of its 80th anniversary, coming up on 16 December.
