Thanks. I had it spelled as buddakhan and knew that was incorrect.
There has been a lot of romanticizing throughout history of defeated Generals. Napoleon, Rommel, Forrest and Lee all lost. Greatest soldier was Henry Fonda. He stopped the Battle of the Bulge with about 6 55 gallon drums!

I hate to say it in the presence of *certain* Freepers, but in many ways Boudicca made Xena the Warrior Princess look like Tricia Nixon.

I've been to Bastogne. They have the first tank from 4th Armored there, as well as a "Cafe du Patton". Cool place.
