This was a Christmas eve for all times, at this important road junction in Belgium

40,000 Germans, about 17,000 Americans, and 3,000 Belgian civilians were destined to spend Christmas Day

It was meant to be a white Christmas, indeed, and those involved would celebrate as best they could.

Bastogne was part of the rendezvous with destiny of the Screaming Eagles of the 101st Airborne Division

Without a word Rod the photos tell a story all by themselves. Beatifully done and wish I had half the talent and knowledge to duplicate your photographic skill. Once again thanks for sharing another outstanding work of art with photos.........The Lt.
 
Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Beautiful shots, so realistic that I got cold looking at your white Christmas.

What talent, simply outstanding work. Love the posters you put on the walls, a really nice touch.

I gotta be a "pain" again. Casablanca was released in 1942. Would an ant-nazi film be allowed in Beligium between 1942-1944?

After 2 years they finally could see this Hollywood classic. The movie was dropped by the AIR Force on December 16th 1944....:eek::D
