Dick Winters, Babe Heffron, Bill Gaurnere, Buck Compton just to name a few of the "famous" men in the battle of bastogne. They were part of the 506th PIR, 101st Airborne, US Army.
There were over 3000 Allied Forces casualties (deaths) in the Battle of Bastogne. I could not find a number of the German deaths. It could be they don't even know how many Germans and Axis Forces troops died in that battle.

The most famous general of World War 1 was probably General Douglas Haig of the British Expeditionary Force (BEF). He led the BEF during the critical battles of the war, including the Battle of the Somme and the Battle of Passchendaele. Haig's leadership and decisions during the war remain controversial and have been the subject of much debate and criticism.
Jutland is the only significant naval battle or World War I
The famous ones are Battle of the Normandy (D-Day), Battle of the Bulge (in Bastogne, Belgium), and Battle of Iwo Jima (in Pacific).
No. Bastogne is in Belgium.

The village Foy is located in Belgium, near the town of Bastogne. The town is famous for its occupation by George S Pattons Third army during World War II.

Poison gas was first used during this battle
The Battle of Bastogne (aka the battle of the Bulge) was the last great German offensive against the allies on the Western front. started in December 1994. The idea was to split the allied forces on a drive to capture the port of Antwerp. The allies were totally surprised because of sloppy intelligence, and a lack of air reconnaissance because of bad weather. The Germans attacked with Tiger tanks, which were superior to allied tanks. Bastogne was a hub of roads that needed to be taken for the Germans to be able to continue their drive to Antwerp. The American airborne troops defended the town and the surrounding woods spite of lacking about everything, including food and winter clothing. When the Germans proposed a surrender, the commander famously answered 'NUTS'. Only a fast operation from general Patton's 3rd Army saved the paratroopers - which they never admitted! Lack of supplies stopped the German attack and when the weather turned, allied air force stopped the attack. The city of Bastogne was basically destroyed during the battle. Bastogne now is a sleepy town, with a monument in the surrounding fields to remember the troops that fought there.
Well, they weren't at Normandy, or in Market Garden, or in the Battle of the Bulge, or the siege of Bastogne, or Pork Chop Hill, or... well, you should see where this is going.
There was no battle line during World War 2.
