On March 7, 1945, 125,000 American troops crossed the Rhine River in just 10 days through a single bridge that should have been destroyed by 2,800 kilograms of explosives but survived due to one fatal supply mistake. You'll see how a 23-year-old German corporal's 60-second sprint under machine gun fire, a substituted civilian mining explosive, and a severed detonation wire created the only intact bridge into Germany's heartland. Four German officers were executed by firing squad for a failure caused by their own supply chain, while the bridge that stood for just 10 extra days shortened World War II by two weeks and saved an estimated 240,000 lives.
