This adds nothing to the historical account of the Battle of the Bulge. It appears to be a mis-mash of separate events that are not well tied to the main event. It ignores entirely the part played by Germans dropped by parachute behind the lines. The author concludes that the German effort to confuse the American troops was a total failure. Although the German plan did not entirely achieve its purpose, nobody should overlook the effect on Eisenhower's headquarters in Paris. That alone probably paid off for the Germans.
