DVIDS - News - First Army in the Battle of the Bulge


15
December 1944 was one of the coldest winters Europe had seen in nearly 20 years, one of many factors slowing the Allied armies in their drive across the continent. This temporary pause gave the German army time to complete their planning and preparation for a massive counter attack code named “Wacht am Rhein” or Watch on the Rhine, an operation that that was Hitler’s brainchild. His stated goal was to pierce the thinly held First Army, VIII Corps line between Monschau and Wasserbillig with Army Group B, commanded by Field Marshall Model. Hitler had ambitious goals for the offensive. He expected Army Group B to be through the Ardennes Forrest by the end of the first day. By the end of the second day, Army Group B would reach the Meuse between Liège and Dinant by the end of the third day and to seize Antwerp as well as the western bank of the Scheldt estuary by the fourth day.
