“...biggest, bloodiest land fight in U.S. history...”
Not saying Bulge was any kind of tea party, it was a grueling, terrifying hell, but it probably wasn’t as bloody as Gettysburg by a long shot. Correction welcome.
In terms of fatalities Bulge was second, Gettysburg fourth:

8 Battle of Shiloh (Civil) 3,482
