In March 1945, the race to cross the Rhine River became a battle of pride as much as strategy.
For months, Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery had been preparing a massive, carefully planned assault.
But while Britain waited, General George S. Patton was already moving.
Without warning, Patton’s Third Army forced a crossing that stunned the German command—and shocked the Allied leadership.
Overnight, the balance of prestige inside the Allied coalition shifted.
This documentary reveals:
How Patton found a way across the Rhine before anyone thought it was possible
Why Montgomery’s carefully prepared operation was suddenly overshadowed
How Eisenhower reacted to the surprise crossing
And why the moment deeply embarrassed Britain’s most famous general
Using battlefield reports, operational orders, and eyewitness accounts, this film uncovers the dramatic rivalry that played out as the Allies broke into the heart of Germany.
This is the story of a single daring move that rewrote the politics of victory.
