Battle of the Bulge

A day-by-day account of WW2, also separated out into particular campaigns, can be found at: angelfire.com Germany invaded Poland on the 1st of September 1939, which is often taken as the beginning of WW2 (Britain declared war on Germany as of 11am on September 3rd) When WW2 started is not a perfectly tidy question though, as Italy was still neutral at this point, Russia was already in conflict with Japan, and Japanese forces had been active in China for years. While still neutral in the Allied/German war, Russia also attacked Finland in November 1939. Italy declared war on 10th June 1940 and the Japanese/American phase of the conflict commenced following the bombing of Pearl Harbour on December 7th 1941, over two years after "Case white", the attack against Poland.

which laws are you referring to? The isolationist movement had since lost its momentum by the time of the Battle of the Bulge. Isolationists had a strong political base up to the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. The Battle of the Bulge happened in 1944-45. By that time the population wanted to defeat Germany and Japan and end the war

With World War Two beginning in September of 1939, the approximate six years between then and 1945 seems to be the accuracy required for the question. With that said, however, it can be debated that this war actually began earlier. The massive invasion of China by Japan coupled with the annexation of Austria and the Italian bombing of Ethiopia all were "part" of the much larger war to begin in 1939.

American and British mainly. By that time in the war there where armed forces from many nations involved to some degree. It was the largest battle American forces engaged in and the battle that resulted in the highest number of American casualties of the European war.

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.

General Cornwallis intended to avenge the defeat of the Hessians at Trenton and wipe out Washington's army. Didn't work out too well for him. Washington's aim was to drive the British troops out of New Jersey.

Much of the battle was affected by the weather. Great snowstorms were a big problem. Trucks had to be run every half hour to keep the oil in them from freezing. Weapons froze, so men urinated on them to thaw them. The temperature during January 1945 was the coldest on record, and casualties from exposure to the cold grew as large as the losses from fighting.Much of the battle was affected by the weather.

During the American Revolutionary War, the Americans won an important battle at Saratoga, New York. That battle showed that an American Army could defeat and capture a British Army in the field. It brought France into the war on the side of the Americans.

It was the first americian victory in almos a year and was the first time the americians attacked. Another reason is that the americians took much needed suplies from the Hessians and almost died.

Antwerp, Belgium

Yes. Field Artillery were used at long range and smaller artillery pieces were used for close range by the infantry.

The weather played a crucial role in the outcome of the Battle of the Bulge. The weather had cleared up enough to allow massive Allied airpower to destroy much of the German army. The German Luftwaffe was overmatched and ineffective to save its German ground forces.

Well, they really didn't win anything, you could argue however they won pearl harbor

anzio is the other place

This... sounds like an attempt to dodge homework, not to put too fine a point on it.

FYI, though, that is a terrible treatment option and will cause more tissue damage than warming the feet by other means.

Yes they where.

A factual tidbit is a small fact about a subject. Some people have factual tidbits about a wide variety of things.

The living conditions in British history during 1550-1650 were not desirable. There was frequent violence and the environment was unsanitary and lacked proper hygiene.

The Battle of Bulge showed the Germans the Allied Forces could drive the Nazis back. Another bad situation for the Germans was the loss of some of their prime fighters, a lot of their military equipment was destroyed and precious fuel was used up fighting a losing battle. They were never able to push the Allied Forces back to the English Channel after that.

The Hudson Bay is the only one I know.
