The Battle of the Bulge Credit War: Montgomery, Marshall & Churchill’s Allied Crisis

This WWII history documentary explores the explosive Allied command crisis that followed Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery’s January 7, 1945 press conference during the Battle of the Bulge, when American commanders believed the British narrative minimized the enormous U.S. sacrifice in the Ardennes. Follow George C. Marshall, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Omar Bradley, George S. Patton, Bernard Montgomery, and Winston Churchill as personal rivalries, national pride, military command, and public opinion threatened Anglo-American unity-and discover how Churchill’s January 18 speech to the House of Commons publicly restored credit to American forces and helped defuse one of the most dangerous political disputes inside the Allied coalition.
