text: Good Morning, American Patriots! Today marks the anniversary of one of the most important dates of World War II. On 12/16/1944, the German Army began their offensive on the Ardennes Forest. This came to be known as The Battle of the Bulge. The Allies suffered 76,890 casualties with 8,607 Americans killed, and the Germans suffered 68,000 casualties with 12,000 killed.This is an article I found that contains many facts that I was unaware of, particularly about some of the German successes with deception. It is a long read, however, I am certain it will contain things even the most avid historian may not know.https://ww2db.com/battle_spec.php?battle_id=42
