In Season 2 Episode 3 we continue our conversation with Dr Peter Schrijvers about the Battle of the Bulge, and more specifically the events surrounding the Belgian town of Bastogne. This second part covers a whole range of topics connected with the battle, among a few of the many things we discuss are Patton's Third Army and its attempt to reach Bastogne and relieve those trapped inside, the civilian experiences during the fighting, acts of valour, as well as the important use of Allied air-power during the battle, and much, much more.
