These weren't set pieces-they were the sloppy seconds of strategy, where colonels scribbled orders on soggy maps while typhus feasted and supply ships ghosted the horizon. Hurtgen Forest swallowed divisions in its fir-choked jaws, a...

Both were full of details, but lacked visual appeal. With the forthcoming anniversary of D Day in 2014, the time is right for the...
