Battle of the Bulge: Infantry Combat in the Frozen Ardennes | WWII | Bud Gahs and Harry Miller
In this week's video the AVC was honored to sit down with two veterans of the Battle of the Bulge, Hitler's last desperate offensive of World War II. Harry Miller served with the 740th Tank Battalion as a tank crewman. On Oct. 29, 1944, Miller's battalion departed England and arrived in France via Utah Beach. Seeing little combat at first, Miller feared he had missed most the action. That all changed on December 16 with the beginning of the German offensive. Lockered “Bud” Gahs was drafted into service in 1943. He would join the esteemed 42nd Infantry Division, famously known as the "Rainbow Division". Initially serving as a truck driver, he would be sent to France in 1944, along with the rest of the 42nd Rainbow men, to face the German counteroffensive near Strasbourg.
