The Germans pulled back and left a Bulge around the town of Bastogne. The Americans seized it with the 101st Airborne Division. They set up a perimeter and then, the Germans moved in around the Americans, and then attacked the perimeter. This action the created the "Bulge", and began The Battle of the "Bulge".
