About this listen
In this episode ofThe History In Motion Podcast, we delve into one of World War II’s most dramatic moments: the Battle of the Bulge. Amid the frozen Ardennes, a surprise German offensive tested the Allies at a pivotal point in the war. At the heart of this saga is Brigadier General Anthony “Tony” McAuliffe of the 101st Airborne Division, whose legendary “Nuts!” became a timeless symbol of defiance under siege in Bastogne.
