Loss and Redemption at St Vith closes a gap in the record of the Battle of the Bulge by recounting the exploits of the 7th Armored Division in a way that no other study has. Most accounts of the ...Battle of the Bulge give short-shrift to the interval during which the German forward progress stopped and the American counterattack began. This narrative centers on the 7th Armored Division for the entire length of the campaign, in so doing reconsidering the story of the whole battle through the lens of a single division and accounting for the reconstitution of the Division while in combat.
Between December 16, 1944 and January 15, 1945, American forces found themselves entrenched in the heavily forested Ardennes region of Belgium, France, and Luxembourg defending against an advancing ...German army amid freezing temperatures, deep snow, and dense fog. Operation Herbstnebel--Autumn Mist--was a massive German counter-offensive that stunned the Allies in its scope and intensity. In the end, the 40-day long Battle of the Bulge, as it has come to be called, was the bloodiest battle fought by U.S. forces in World War II, and indeed the largest land battle in American history. Before effectively halting the German advance, some 89,000 of the 610,000 American servicemen committed to the campaign had become casualties, including 19,000 killed. The engagement saw the taking of thousands of Americans as prisoners of war, some of whom were massacred by the SS--but it also witnessed the storied stand by U.S. forces at Bastogne as German forces besieged the region and culminated in a decisive if costly American victory. Ordered and directed by Hitler himself--against the advice of his generals--the Ardennes offensive was the last major German offensive on the Western Front. In the wake of the defeat, many experienced German units were left severely depleted of men and equipment. Its last reserve squandered, these irreplaceable losses would hasten the end of the war. In Snow and Steel, Peter Caddick-Adams draws on interviews with over 100 participants of the campaign, as well as archival material from both German and US sources, to offer an engagingly written and thorough reassessment of the historic battle. Exploring the failings of intelligence that were rife on both sides, the effects of weather, and the influence of terrain on the battle's outcome, Caddick-Adams deftly details the differences in weaponry and doctrine between the US and German
forces, while offering new insights into the origins of the battle; the characters of those involved on both the American and German sides, from the general staff to the foot soldiers; the preparedness of troops; and the decisions and tactics that precipitated the German retreat and the American victory. Re-examining the SS and German infantry units in the Bulge, he shows that far from being deadly military units, they were nearly all under-strength, short on equipment, and poorly trained; kept in the dark about the attack until the last minute, they fought in total ignorance of their opponents or the terrain. Ultimately, Caddick-Adams concludes that the German assault was doomed to failure from the start. Aided by an intimate knowledge of the battlefield itself and over twenty years of personal battlefield experience, Caddick-Adams has produced the most compelling and complete account of the Bulge yet written.
This article examines one of the areas of activity for restriction of information - the system of military censorship in the Soviet military press: what remained unchanged and what was transformed in ...its work on protecting information, which was a military secret between 1944 and 1945. The study focuses on the regulatory framework of military censorship, the objects of the ban, the censor's personnel, technology of censorship control. Until December 1943 in the Red Army, there was a 'Regulation on the organization of military censorship' of 1935, which did not meet wartime requirements. The new 'Regulation' corrected the situation. The change and addition of the composition of the information constituting military secrets were directly affected by the course of combat operations during the Red Army's campaign in Europe. The subject of censorship prevented the disclosure of military secrets, political errors, and information undesirable to publish in the military press.
During the Battle of the Bulge, Waffen SS soldiers shot 84 American prisoners near Malmedy, Belgium—the deadliest mass execution of U.S. soldiers during World War II. Drawing on newly declassified ...documents, Steven Remy revisits the massacre and the most infamously controversial war crimes trial in American history, to set the record straight.
Si la ville de Bastogne et le fameux Nuts de McAuliffe symbolisent la résistance américaine lors de l'offensive allemande dans les Ardennes en décembre 1944, on ne peut oublier les combats acharnés ...livrés par les troupes américaines à Stavelot et dans la vallée de l'Amblève contre la fameuse 1re SS Panzer Division Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler (LAH) qui s'était vu confier la mission d'atteindre la première la Meuse. L'ouvrage relate les événements survenus tout au long de la progression de la division blindée de Stadtkyll en Allemagne jusqu'à Stoumont dans la vallée de l'Amblève. Il s'attache à décrire et à essayer d'expliquer les manquements et les erreurs commises lors de la conduite des opérations par certains états-majors et commandants d'unités tant du côté américain que du côté allemand. Il rappelle aussi les crimes horribles commis par les hommes de la LAH.
Dans ce troisième tome, le commandant Castor retrace les événements du 3 au 23 janvier 1945. Les averses de neige tombent sans arrêt dans une bise glaciale, les hommes sont partout confrontés au dur ...hiver ardennais. La contre-attaque de Montgomery démarre de la région de Hotton vers Houffalize, où est prévue la jonction avec l'armée de Patton. Fin janvier, c'est le temps de la retraite pour les soldats allemands. A l'heure du bilan, alors qu'on dénombre les blessés, les disparus et les morts, une question se pose : le plan d'Hitler était-il réalisable?.
