Discover the shocking moment when German SS Colonel Joachim Peiper captured 50,000 gallons of American fuel at Honsfeld during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 and realized Germany had already lost World War II. This meticulously researched documentary reveals how Peiper's desperate Kampfgruppe, running on empty fuel tanks during Hitler's last major offensive, stumbled upon an abandoned American supply depot containing more gasoline than most German divisions received in six months. Through eyewitness accounts, military records, and never-before-told details about the Ardennes offensive, witness how this single discovery exposed the devastating truth about Germany's impossible fight against American industrial might - where the US military could afford to burn millions of gallons to deny them to the enemy while German tanks sat paralyzed for lack of fuel. Learn how America's overwhelming logistics superiority, producing 1.8 billion barrels of oil versus Germany's 33 million, predetermined the war's outcome and why Peiper later said finding that depot was "the worst thing that could have happened" as it revealed Germany was fighting not a war but "participating in our own funeral."
