In December 1944 an enormous German army group crashed through the thin American line in the Ardennes forest. Caught by surprise, the Allies were initially only able to throw two divisions of paratroopers to buttress the collapse--the 82nd Airborne, which was rushed to the area of St. Vith, and the 101st, which was trucked to Bastogne.
