Well, that's my point. Bastogne wasn't the entire Bulge, and the 101st, heroes that they were, weren't the only guys who were there.

I know that...I was just adding to the conversation and not contradicting you.

I have an uncle who was in the 101st and was sent to Bastogne. My aunt said he refused to talk about it. The only story she ever got out of him was that as he came over a hill with a five man squad, a burst of machine gun fire killed the other four and missed him.
