What was the general feeling in the American lines during the Battle of the Bulge? Did people think that it was an intense campaign of an army in its last throes, or was there a real fear that they could break through to the sea and put the Allies in a terrible situation? Given that it was shortly after Market-Garden, I would think that morale would be a bit low.

How did you get into Europe? Being an OSS agent in of itself, then with the later German attitude towards commandos and other "dishonorable" combatants (allied bomber crews), I would assume they had to take great care before inserting you. Did you just come over with normal troops at a secured beach head? Did you have to come up through a neutral country (Portugal/Spain)? Or did you have to secretly infil in an occupied country and make your way about (France/Netherlands)?
