Tank Warfare: Bazooka vs Panzer Battle in Battle of the Bulge 1944

During World War II, tanks played a critical role in battles, capable of breaching enemy defenses if not countered. To address this threat, the United States introduced the M1 Anti-Tank Rocket Launcher, commonly known as the Bazooka. Initially utilized in combat in 1942, this weapon demanded skill and courage for effective use. By late 1944, it became a vital component of the US infantry's anti-tank arsenal, working in conjunction with towed weapons, anti-tank grenades, and other established measures.

Delving into the intense combat dynamics between Germany’s armored divisions and the US infantry during the Battle of the Bulge, Steven Zaloga's captivating research examines the cutting-edge tactics utilized by both sides. Through specially commissioned full-color artwork and detailed battle accounts, this volume sheds new light on the evolving nature of infantry-versus-tank warfare in the final months of World War II.
