What is The Other Battle Of The Bulge: Operation Northwind (spellmount Siegfried Line): Operation Northwind (spellmount Siegfried Line) about?

Operation Northwind, planned by the Führer himself, hurled eight German divisions, three of them S.S., against the thinly held American line in the Alsace-Lorraine region. <p>Few except those who fought it know anything about this second Battle of the Bulge, which cost the Americans and their French comrades-in-arms nearly as many casualties and almost destroyed the alliance.</p> <p> Because Eisenhower determined to evacuate Strasbourg, for a few days, while American troops fought for their lives in the snow-bound hills of Alsace-Lorraine, it looked as if the Franco-American alliance might be broken apart and France thrown into something akin to revolution.</p>
