Tour the frozen Ardennes Forests to Malmedy, St. Vith and Bastogne and see how the surprise Nazi plan to encircle and destroy the Allied armies was foiled by the actions of U.S. forces. Visit the frozen foxholes and fog-shrouded hills of the battlefield, listen to veterans who fought there and learn how they pushed the Nazis back behind their Siegfried Line. The production uses animated maps, archival footage and firsthand accounts to explain the Battle of the Bulge.
