Battle of the Bulge It was an historic battle that sealed Germany¹s fate in the final stage of World War II! Germany¹s dramatic "all or nothing" counter-offensive through the Allies¹ defense line in the Ardennes forest from December 1944 to January 1945 created a "bulge" effect in that perimeter. The Allies rebounded and in the end, Germany¹s attempt to oust them failed. With that, the Allies surged to victory, defeating the Third Reich by May 1945. Includes: M-1 Carbine rifle with ammo pouch and removable ammo clip, .50 caliber machine gun with tripod and ammo belt, helmet, and 2 diorama walls. Availability March 2001.
