[PAR] [TLE] Battle of the Bulge [SEP] The Battle of the Bulge (16 December 1944 – 25 January 1945) was the last major German offensive campaign on the Western Front during World War II.  It was launched through the densely forested Ardennes region of Wallonia in eastern Belgium, northeast France, and Luxembourg, towards the end of World War II.  The surprise attack caught the Allied forces completely off guard.  American forces bore the brunt of the attack and incurred their highest casualties of any operation during the war.  The battle also severely depleted Germany's armored forces, and they were largely unable to replace them.  German personnel and, later, Luftwaffe aircraft (in the concluding stages of the engagement) also sustained heavy losses.
