General Dwight Eisenhower’s strategic coordination held the Allied lines together, while General James Gavin defended the critical northern shoulder of the Bulge. At Bastogne, surrounded by the enemy and facing near-impossible odds, Major Dick Winters and the men of Easy Company displayed unparalleled courage and determination. Lieutenant Colonel Creighton Abrams’ push to relieve Bastogne underscored the importance of decisive, relentless leadership in the face of overwhelming adversity.
