Not the diet. 72 years ago yesterday, one of the most desperate battles in our history began. It lasted until late January when George Patton and good weather showed up. The sacrifice those men made is mind boggling. And their character is what built our country.
Even if you just read the wiki, take sometime to think about it. Its pretty astounding.

I was born in the middle of it, (12/44) my mother always said she was fighting her own battle of the bulge at the time.
The older I get, the better I was. I also forget my password and have to have Len reset it for me
