Using a combination of U.S. Dept. of Defense archive films and period newsreels of the time, each film features actual wartime footage and or first-person accounts from those that were there. This DVD is about The Battle for Bastogne, during the German counteroffensive known as the Battle of the Bulge (December 1944), the last major German offensive campaign of World War II. The US Third Army and the 10th Division was involved heavily in this battle to repulse this German attack. The films detail the specific tactical employments and personal stories of the men involved in this decisive moment in World War II. On December 16, taking advantage of cold and fog, German artillery initiated the Battle of the Bulge attacking the American divisions deployed sparsely around Bastogne. A few days later, Brigadier General McAuliffe and the 101st Airborne Division along with elements of the 10th Armored Division (United States) and the 82nd Airborne Division, arrived to counter-attack but, after heavy fighting, became encircled within the town. On December 22, German emissaries asked for the American surrender, to which the General answered tersely, “Nuts!” Films on the DVD are: - Tigers on the Loose, Parts I and II (US Army) Combat story of 10th Armored Division—fighting in Bastogne and ensuing events during push to Bremmer Pass from December 1944 to April 1945.
