Well, at least the author spared us Henry Fonda's Battle of the Bulge. My late Dad used to invite apoplexy by watching that little perennial groaner. "What's wrong, Dad?" I asked him. "They're all too *&##&ing clean," he shouted.

Robert Shaw played the German commander in BATTLE OF THE BULGE...It was an OK movie...Not great...

My Dad liked John Wayne movies about the war. He would not have set foot in a theater showing a realistic film. Maybe he would have when old except he died in Vietnam. He hated war with a passion. He fought in 3 of them.
