. . . storm the Bastogne and demand it be stopped.

Methinks you mean storm the Bastille, the infamous French prison which was the focus of events on July 14, 1789 which begin the French Revolution.

Bastogne was the Belgian town which was focal point of the Battle of the Bulge which the Germans surrounded and demanded the American commander surrender on Christmas Eve, 1944. His famous one-word reply "Nuts!" and subsequent heroic holdout bought the time needed for the Allies to turn the tide of that battle into a humiliating Nazi defeat.
