点评:Tremendous museum that attempts and succeeds at making visitors feel what the soldiers and citizens went thru during this horrific battle. So many lives lost.
The vignettes are so realistic. Some quite shocking.
We worked with one of the founders, Johnny Bona and he was fantastic. Truly one of the best guides we have ever worked with anywhere in the world He is a retired Belgian officer and is extremely well informed and passionate about the battle of the bulge and the sacrifices made by all the soldiers who fought in this action. We spent 5+ hours with him, a full briefing of the battle, the disposition of the troops, the motivations behind the battle and the cost in lives lost if the battle. We then toured the key sites including fox holes he knows that are off the typical tourist route and we were able to traverse the route that Patton's tanks took on their way into Bastogne. At each stop Johnny pulled out maps on poster board so we could orient ourselves.
A really great and highly educational day.
翻译:这座博物馆非常棒,它试图并成功地让游客感受到士兵和民众在这场可怕的战斗中所经历的一切。无数人失去了生命。
这些片段非常逼真,有些甚至令人震惊。
我们与博物馆的创始人之一约翰尼·博纳合作,他非常棒。他绝对是我们在世界上合作过的最好的导游之一。他是一位退休的比利时军官,对突出部战役以及所有在这场战斗中牺牲的士兵有着极其深入的了解,并且充满热情。我们与他一起待了五个多小时,听取了关于这场战役的全面简报、部队部署、战斗背后的动机以及战斗中牺牲的人员伤亡。之后,我们参观了一些关键地点,包括他所知道的那些远离典型旅游路线的散兵坑,我们还穿越了巴顿坦克进军巴斯托涅的路线。每到一站,约翰尼都会拿出海报板上的地图,让我们辨别方向。
这真是精彩而富有教育意义的一天。
