Big Guns & Purple Hearts in Bastogne | American Artifact Episode 119

In a prior episode, we brought the shoulder patch of 101st Airborne General Anthony McAuliffe back to the Bastogne Barracks where he had his headquarters during the siege of Bastogne. What we didn't show is that there is a HUGE military vehicle museum there as well. So we're taking a bit of time to see what's in one of the buildings before we show an artifact that belong to another 101st Airborne soldier who was wounded near the barracks in the winter of '44.
