    L' odyssée sanglante du Kampfgruppe Peiper
    Ardennes 44
    • La bataille des Ardennes, ce fut, pour les Etats-Unis d'Amérique, l'engagement le plus meurtrier sur le théâtre européen des opérations de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Ecrasés sous un feu intense et par une armée plus forte en nombre, parfois isolés, débordés, les fantassins américains tinrent bon, empêchant les Allemands d'atteindre leurs objectifs. Par leur courage, leur ténacité et leur sacrifice, grâce à leur lutte désespérée, ils furent les véritables vainqueurs de ce dernier sursaut du Reich. La résistance et la combativité de petits groupes de G.I's permirent de retarder et d'arrêter l'avance des troupes nazies. Tel fut notamment le cas pour le Kampfgruppe Peiper, fer de lance de la 6e SS-Panzer Armee, dont la percée fut stoppée dans la région de La Gleize. Ce livre est consacré à ce moment dramatique de notre histoire, qui est aussi une de ses phases les plus spectaculaires : l'offensive du Kampfgruppe Peiper pendant la période du 16 au 25 décembre 1944. Alors s'est joué le sort de la bataille des Ardennes.
