In 1944 and 1945, the men of the 99th Infantry Division became unwilling pawns in three mighty battles that changed the course of history. This is the story of the Battle of the Bulge,the Remagen Bridgehead Battle, and the Ruhr Pocket Battle as Albert Arlinghaus, a 99th Infantry Division Rifleman, remembered it.
