BATTLE OF THE BULGE THEN & NOW - In this episode we will be following the route of the German 2nd SS Panzer Division and cover the heroic story of Richard Wiegand who stopped them in their tracks. Bob Konings is a tour guide and one of the best Battle of the Bulge researchers out there. This area is his specialty and so he is the perfect person for this relatively unknown area of the Battle of the Bulge.
