Despre activitate
Come join me on a tour of the glorious history of the American army.
The Ardennes offensive of Winter 1944, and the famous battle of the Bulge.
This interactive tour tells the big stories of battle, tactics, and commanders and the small ones of the soldiers, their daily routine, their fear, freezing cold in the foxholes, and wet nights in the trenches.
Travelers often customize these tour locations, adding battle sites of their past relatives who fought in the Ardennes offensive.
