"Seymour "Sy" Lichtenfeld was a 19-year-old rifleman in the U.S. Army's 106th Infantry Division when he was captured at the point of a German soldier's bayonet in the Battle of the Bulge and made a prisoner of war. During that cold Dec. 16, 1944-Jan. 25, 1945, battle in the Ardennes Forest -- the bloodiest and costliest in terms of Allied casualties -- Lichtinfeld's unit was surrounded for three days and ran out of food and ammunition before surrendering."
