∙ 15y agoThe Battle of the Bulge, officially known as the Ardennes Offensive to the US Army and Operation The Guard on the Rhine to the Germans took place Dec 1944 to Jan 45. The fanciful idea of retaking Antwerp was not really achievable, though it came as a shock to the Allies who, by and large, thought the Germans incapable of an offensive. 'Nuts'says it all, really. (& if you don't know what that refers to look for Bastogne....)

Why was the battle of bulge significant?
It was the last great German counterattack on the western front, recovering some ground from the advancing Allied (American) forces. By repulsing it, the Allies drove on to end the war about four months later. The Battle of the Bulge (also known as the Ardennes Offensive and the Von Rundstedt Offensive to the Germans) (16 December 1944 - 25 January 1945) was a major German offensive (die Ardennenoffensive), launched toward the end of World War II through the densely forested Ardennes mountain region of Wallonia in Belgium, hence its French name (Bataille des Ardennes), and France and Luxembourg on the Western Front. The Wehrmacht's code name for the offensive was Unternehmen Wacht am Rhein ("Operation Watch on the Rhine"), after the German patriotic hymn Die Wacht am Rhein.
