Relive the epic Battle of the Bulge
America's biggest, bloodiest battle of WWII
By late 1944 an increasingly beleaguered Adolf Hitler gambled all on a last desperate throw of the dice. Faced with the Allied onslaught into Northern France following D-Day, the Fuhrer sent a massive 56 battle-hardened divisions and almost 4,000 tanks and artillery to block the enemy progress as they reached the snowbound Ardennes forest. This was the Battle of the Bulge.
At first, the Germans made good headway – their speed of movement across the difficult woodland terrain allowing them to punch a hole in the Allied advance. For a moment it seemed as though Hitler’s bold plan to cut the US forces in two might just work.
But then, enter the M16! As divisions of mighty Sherman and Tiger tanks clashed with earth-shattering force on the battlefield, the lighter, faster M16 was assigned by commanding officer General George S Patton to relieve the besieged town of Bastogne, which had become the focal point of the whole engagement. Ruthlessly deploying its 4x 50mm Browning ‘Meatchopper’ heavy machine guns the M16 swept all before it, liberating Bastogne after a week-long siege and decisively turning the battle in the Allies’ favour. The road to Berlin now lay open.
