About

Operation Griffin was a German special operation commanded by Otto Skorzeny in December 1944 during the Battle of the Bulge. Its purpose was to capture one or more of the bridges over the Meuse River. German soldiers, wearing Allied uniforms and using captured vehicles, were to cause confusion in the rear of the American lines. Operation Stoesser was to be a German paratroop drop into the American rear areas during the Battle of the Bulge. Its objective was to take and hold the crossroads at Belle Croix Jalhay until the arrival of the 12th SS Panzer Division. Duane E. Shaffer presents the strategy and tactics of these important operations. Online program only.
