I watched Battleground. The movie focuses on the 101st Airborne Division. The division is moved around until they are needed at the Battle of the Bulge. At the battle the weather is a major problem. The weather starts out breezy and clear, but over night the weather turns bitterly cold and foggy. The division has a hard time seeing and can't protect themselves as well in the fog as in the clear air. Then to make it worse the supply planes couldn't see to drop the supplies. So at the end of the movie the fog cleared and supplies and relief came. The division got to go to Paris and home to their families.
