Default Hi from the US.
Hi my name is Josh. I joined to learn more about the Military. I'm making a Band of Brothers diarama. It is set outside of Bastogne on December 24th 1944. I'm insterested in all of WW2 but mostly D-Day & the Battle of the Bulge. I'm a high school student. I collect military items. My other interests are sports, especially baseball, modeling and Ho trains. I hope to learn a lot from this forum.

Dude,

Got to this website and type "Bastogne" in the left search field:

CARL's ContentDM Digital Library Welcome page

Many good papers about this battle.

Also, the Center of Military History has the Green Book for the battle of the bulge in digits. Do a google search for "Center of Military History" and you check the "Online Bookshelves".

There are other good sites about the "Battle of the Bulge".

Welcome Josh. Remember, it is difficult to study one event during WWII without understanding everything that came before and led up to that event. Enjoy your stay and take it all in!

Welcome to the forums Josh, hope your diorama goes well, and when you're done pictures would be appreciated.
