what does 'bulge' refer to?


Maybe it explains this in the movie but I havent seen it....I just saw now on another website this term and was wondering why they called the battle the "battle of the Bulge"
Can someone please explain to me?

jealousy is the fear of losing someone you truly love

It refers to the 'bulge' caused in the Allies battle line.

As the Germans attcked, the Allies were forced to withdraw to better defensive positions and this caused a large pocket in the Allie's lines to form.

Hope that helped.

For a pucture of 'The Bulge', take a look here:
