The Battle of the Bulge: A Helmet Full of Beer

Another post on The Battle of the Bulge, this one on the 75th anniversary of “NUTS!” day. Here’s a swell story from one of the defenders of Bastogne:

As far as I can tell, Vince Speranza is not only still alive, he has a book out: Nuts!: A 101st Airborne Division Machine Gunner at Bastogne. Something to consider for the military history buff in your family.

If you’re out and about, you might raise a glass in honor of Vince Speranza, and all the other veterans of World War II still among us.
