Remembering one of the most fierce and decisive
battles of World War II.
During the Battle of the Bulge the forces of Nazi Germany and the Axis powers
staged a desperate gambit to push the Allied forces of the West off the European continent.
The Battle of the Bulge started December 16, 1944.
Harry Miller enlisted in the US Army at the age of 15
and soon found himself part of the 740th Tank Battalion
attached to the 82nd Airborne Division.
Harry's unit quickly joined the fight in the Ardennes region
against the Axis powers. In commemoration of the
75th anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge, watch
Harry's personal account of the battle."

To all the American heroes who fought the Battle of the Bulge
and liberated Europe from the Nazis during WWII, thank you
for your courageous service and for my freedom.
For those young men who never came home again, and
for those who returned and are no longer here among us
may you rest in the mercy and love of God's peace.
