Saints and Soldiers — Belgium
The 2003 LDS-produced film follows American POWs who escape after the Malmedy massacre — the SS execution of 84 American prisoners at the Baugnez crossroads during the Battle of the Bulge.
On 17 December 1944, the 1st SS Panzer Division Kampfgruppe Peiper murdered 84 unarmed American POWs at the Baugnez crossroads near Malmedy — the worst atrocity against US forces in the Western theatre. The Malmedy Massacre Trial sentenced 43 SS soldiers to death, though all sentences were eventually commuted under controversial circumstances.
