Battle of the Bulge HW

In the fall of 1944, allied troops had completed the successful invasion of Normandy retaking Paris at the end of August.  In September, the allies embarked on Operation Market Garden to liberate Holland and open a highway and supply line that would allow for a quick invasion of Germany.  Although ultimately unsuccessful, the operation severely weakened the German army’s ability to resist the oncoming allied advance.  However, in December of 1944, Hitler launched a surprise, massive counterattack which would become known as the Battle of the Bulge.
