It was truly a white Christmas in the Ardennes Forest in 1944, but
that was cold comfort to the Allied soldiers trying to stop the
Nazis from retaking Belgium in one of the most decisive battles of
World War II. While a German loudspeaker taunted, ?How would you
like to die for Christmas the Allied forces dug in, despite
freezing conditions. They needed a miracle.
In a medieval chapel, General Patton, who needed clear skies to
allow airborne reinforcements to reach his trapped men, uttered
what would become a famous prayer: ?Sir, whose side are you on His
soldiers wouldn't be home for Christmas, but as the skies cleared,
they went on to win a battle? and a war.
General
