A major event in World War Two that led to the final defeat of the Third Reich was the Battle of the Bulge.

Using mainly tanks supported by ground troops, this was a "last gasp" plan to turn the war outcome around.

It was a deliberate bursting through of the encircling Allied troops, well thought out counter-attack, that ultimately failed.
