U.S. Army General Consulting Map with Staff Officer in Field, Likely Bastogne Area, December 1944
A U.S. Army general, likely Brigadier General Anthony C. McAuliffe of the 101st Airborne Division, confers over a map with a staff officer at a field table in a wooded area, possibly near Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge, December 1944. McAuliffe commanded the besieged garrison and became famous for his one-word reply of 'Nuts!' to a German surrender ultimatum. Project: 218609
