  It was the 705th TD Battalion under a Col. Templeton that reinforced the 101st at Bastogne. They arrived on Dec 19th and a platoon was immediately sent north to Team Desobry at Noville. I understand they performed very well there and again on Christmas morning when the Germans attacked the western side of the perimeter.

  I&apos;m a simple man: I see an interview with Chieftain, I click. &nbsp;And in this case it looks like I&apos;ve discovered a rather nice channel that I&apos;m going to enjoy following. &nbsp;Thanks!

  An excellent presentation from the Chieftan! &nbsp;His knowledge of armored warfare is outstanding and all base on research into original documents and first hand experience. &nbsp;I hope he comes back on WW2TV soon.

  Howdy folks. The Chieftain is the true pro from Dover. His knowledge is extensive and wider than the Texas sky. Woody has the best guests and the best history channel on YouTube. Nick’s is a close second

  Australians found the 25PDR was a good anti tank Weapon in Tobruk against Pz3 and Italian Tanks. Maybe that experience was shared with the US . The Desert war did have long wide field of view to hold certain landscapes and goat tracks and Hills with dug in Anti Tanks. The British Command never picked up combined arms going forward as a tactic until late 42/early43 creating other chances of sited &nbsp;A/T favour . Not that they knew it

  Thread Bump <br><br>I am surprised that The Chieftain didn&apos;t mention how the infantry at Trobruk let the tanks go, and then hopped up and defeated the panzer grenadiers, whilst allowing the German tanks stripped of their infantry, to advance unsupported into the gun/tank screen and be shot to pieces.
