Battle of the Bulge: The Heroic Stand of Team Desobry at Noville | History Traveler Episode 421

When people think of Bastogne, they typically think of the men of the 101st Airborne who were under siege there in the winter of 1944-45. But the formation of the Bastogne perimeter came at a cost. In this episode, we're taking a look at the heroic defense of Noville by Team Desobry of the 10th Armored Division & the men of 1st Battalion of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment.
