December 1944. Snow descended in thick curtains over the Ardennes Forest as German panzers ripped through American defensive lines in what history would record as the largest battle the United States Army ever fought.
Inside the emergency meeting convened at Verdun on December 19th, the Allied High Command confronted their gravest crisis since D-Day itself.
General Dwight Eisenhower stood before a room packed with exhausted generals, each man bearing the crushing weight of thousands of lives balanced on his shoulders. The question facing them wasn't simply how to halt the German offensive that was tearing through their lines.
It was who would command the counterattack that would decide the battle's outcome. And in that smoke-filled room, thick with tension and the weight of desperate decisions, Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery was about to make a proposal that would force Eisenhower into the most politically dangerous decision of his entire career.
