EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of relief and jubilation as members of the US 101st Airborne Division begin to move out of Bastogne, Belgium following the lifting of the siege during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944. The Battle of Bastogne was a pivotal turning point in the European theater of World War II, with the town under siege by the German army for over a week. The 101st Airborne, outnumbered and surrounded, held steadfast against the enemy onslaught, earning the nickname "Bastards of Bastogne" for their tenacity and determination. The lifting of the siege came as a result of a daring rescue mission by General Anthony McAuliffe and the US First Army, breaking through the German encirclement and relieving the besieged town. In this image, we see the battered and weary soldiers of the 101st Airborne, their faces etched with the exhaustion of battle, as they prepare to move out and continue the fight. The American flag, emblazoned with the Screaming Eagle insignia, flutters proudly in the wind, a symbol of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. This historical photograph is a poignant reminder of the bravery and sacrifice of the Allied forces during the Battle of the Bulge and the eventual victory in the European theater of World War II.
