Didnt the US army refuse to retreat or then surrender at Bastogne (the roadblock) in the Battle of the Bulge. What if they had surrendered to the Germans then?

PFC Martin had an assault shovel, just like those poor doomed Wangers.

But to answer your question (

The 101st Airborne was surrounded.
They had the Germans right where they wanted them.
