Yes, King Tigers, or Königstigers, were present during the Battle of the Bulge. The German army deployed these heavy tanks as part of their offensive in the Ardennes, where they aimed to split Allied forces. While they were formidable machines, their impact was limited by fuel shortages and logistical challenges faced by the German forces during the battle.
He is our Great Grandfather and we know he fought in the Battle of the bulge just cannot find any documentation stating the soldiers in this battle. Can you help us?
Yes
The Battle of the Bulge didn't happen in WW1, It happened towards the end of WW2 in Europe. It was a key WW2 battle as it was Hitler's last major offensive move to regain any control on the western front.
yes, 10 king tigers
Every g.i. Had to score points to "earn" a discharge home. 85 points was the benchmark; which could be accumulated by ribbons, years of service and surviving the battle of the bulge! By using one free hand and holding a picture of rita hayworth, betty grable, or Jane Russell, with the other hand...this would "solve" any issues g.i.'s had with the battle with bulges!

None. The Russians did not participate in the battle. The Battle of the Bulge occurred on the Germany's "western front" in Belgium. The opposing forces were exclusively German and American. The battle did not involve any Russian forces or formations.

No tigers are shown in The Lion King movies as they don't live in eastern Africa where The Lion King is set. The other big cats besides lions that are seen in the films are cheetahs and leopards.

Romania had surrendered to the Russians in August of 1944, and joined the Allies in September that same year. The Battle of the Bulge began December 16, so there would not be any organized Romanian military units at the Bulge fighting with the Germans. It is also unlikely that the Allied armies contained any Romanian units as their army was not that large and had suffered tremendous losses fighting the Russians. What remained would continue to fight in the east against their former German handlers.
I'm sorry, but I couldn't find any specific information regarding an individual named Anthony Prosperino in relation to injuries from the Battle of the Bulge. The Battle of the Bulge was a significant World War II battle that occurred in late 1944 and involved many soldiers, but detailed records of individual injuries may not be widely available. If you have more context or details about him, I might be able to assist further.
The youngest soldiers who fought in the Battle of the Bulge would be 85, or turning 85 this year. That would mean that some of them still are left, but their numbers would be diminishing rapidly. I don't know a figure for how many soldiers from that Battle are still alive, but they now say that almost 1,500 Veterans of World War II are dying every day. If you run into any World War II veterans - thank them.
