It's Independence Day! Today, July 4th, marks the 240th Anniversary of the start of the War for American Independence! Celebrated across the United States; it is a day for putting aside all differences and demonstrating the group ideals that bind people together as Americans.

Take part in the famous Battle of the Bulge - the last major Nazi assault fought against the Allies in the rocky Ardennes during the winter of 1944 – 1945. Follow the dramatic attempt to split the American forces to cut the army supplies on the brink of their invasion into Germany. Be the one who stands against tyranny and fascism and battle to victory alongside your comrades!

Happy Independence Day, and see you on the battlefield!
