Discover the untold story of December 23, 1944, when German forces besieging Bastogne witnessed 241 American C-47 transport planes break through heavy flak to deliver over 1,000 tons of supplies to the surrounded 101st Airborne Division. This historic operation transformed Wehrmacht veterans’ understanding of American industrial might during the Battle of the Bulge.
Drawing from primary sources including post-war interrogations of German commanders like Generalmajor Heinz Kokott and the 26th Volksgrenadier Division war diaries, this meticulously researched account reveals how the massive aerial resupply operation psychologically shattered German forces. They realized they were fighting not just an army, but an entire industrial civilization capable of supplying surrounded troops by air more efficiently than Germany could supply advancing forces by road.
Through eyewitness accounts, military records, and detailed documentation, discover how parachutes carrying ammunition, medical supplies, food, and whole blood for transfusions demonstrated to German soldiers that the Third Reich’s defeat was inevitable. Bastogne became not just a tactical victory, but a powerful display of the Arsenal of Democracy, proving the 101st Airborne would never need to surrender, because America’s industrial and logistical might would never let them fail.
