You may are familiar with the story about "NUTs", what General McAuliffe replied to the German request of surrender of the US paras encircled in Bastogne 1944.

So there is each Dec the Nuts Weekend to remember this in Bastogne with lots of reenactment around and at the Bastogne War Museum
We also visited the grave of Renée Lemaire, the "Angle of Bastogne" you may know from the show "Band of Brothers"

Re: Nuts weekend Bastogne 2023
Sunday we went to Houffalize, another little town next to Bastogne were heavy fights took place. A German Panther tank felt off the river bridge, flippt over and killed its crew that way.
