Battle of the Hurtgen (Ep3 - The Final Offensive & the Bulge)

On December 16th, 1944. After months of fighting in the Hurtgen and attempting to cross the Seigfried Line, the Germans launched their final major offensive of the war. Ultimately known as the Battle of the Bulge we will be discussing why it happened and why the City of Bastogne became such a focal point for the German Army on their push to Antwerp. In the mist of their own fight, the Waffen SS carried out two war crimes that would light a fire under the Americans. This battle would be the final closing piece for those fighting in the Hurtgen and would give an open path to Germany.
