What was Patton's role in the Battle of the Bulge?
Patton was commanding the US 3rd Army. US forces, north to south, were the 9th Army, 1st Army, 3rd Army and 7th Army. The attack fell at the junction point between the US 9th and 1st Armies, well north of Patton's location. But it was a very large attack and involved a large portion of the front of 1st Army, Patton's neighbor to the immediate north. Patton was attacking eastward with his usual vigor when the German attack came. Once the proportions of the German attack became clear Eisenhower called a conference. Before leaving for the conference Patton put his staff to work on a plan to relieve the troops attacked to his north. Patton promised at the conference that he could disengage from his attack to the east, reorient his army to face north, and make a heavy attack into the southern flank of the "Bulge" the Germans had driven into the American line, within two days. This seemed fantastic to Eisenhower and others at the conference, but Patton delivered on his promise. It was one of Patton's division, the 4th Armored Division, which first reached Bastogne to relieve the surrounded and besieged 101st Airborne Division at that vital crossroads.
