What was the point of this battle in the first place? Well, Germany had a reason to have this war. Hitler, leader of the Germany Nazi’s, wanted to split the Allies apart. In this battle, the Allies were about to pass the Germany’s border. The Nazi’s had one more chance to ruin their plan. They intended to split the British and the U.S.A. He planned to do a counter offense on them. His plan, however, didn’t go as planned. Even Adolf’s generals tried to explain how this …show more content…
plan wasn’t the one they should go with but he told them to do it anyway.
Germany’s army needed a time to give the U.S.A.
their surprise. U.S. didn’t get the surprise they hoped for like a surrender. No, some of the soldiers were forced to land because of the weather. That helped Germany because the Nazi’s had a perfect chance to give them their present. They started firing at the U.S. army with guns and tanks. While they were firing they didn’t realize that the enemy started getting ready for the battle. The counter offense Hitler hoped for was about to become unsuccessful.
The U.S, somehow, was starting to get their guns and tanks to fight back. Germany’s plan is not going to turn out as Hitler thought it would plan out. The U.S. army was fighting back and Germany was starting to fall. U.S. and Britain together outnumbered Germany by at least 100,000. Germany lost the battle by this battle being too extreme as an attack and Hitler didn’t listen to his generals. At the end, the U.S and Britain lost about 90,000 soldiers but Germany, on the other hand, lost about 100,000 Nazis. Germany lost many weapons, tanks, and aircraft. U.S. did as well, but not as
much.
What if Hitler listen to his generals? They wouldn’t have lost so many men and waste so many military equipment and maybe, later on in the war, could’ve have won WWII. This battle started out with Germany winning because U.S. didn’t have the time to get the weapons. They weren’t prepared at first but when soldiers got the weapons and tanks. Germany was doomed to win this battle. The U.S. and Britain had a chance to attack and they did. All of this to Germany was just wasting material that can not just reappear. World War II could’ve had a different result if Germany didn’t go through with the Battle of the Bulge.
