Mark Your Calendar! 3rd Battle of the Bulge Conference

For the 3rd straight year, BOBA and the WWII American Experience Museum are teaming up to present a conference covering some of the latest scholarship n the Ardennes campaign. The conference will be held January 25, 2026, at the WWII American Experience Museum 845 Crooked Creek Rd., Gettysburg PA 17325

The evening before, there will be a very casual “Meet the Speakers” event at the Best Western Hotel. Watch this space for more information.

The sparkers are:

  • Stuart Dempsey (German Army)
  • Leon Reed (US armor doctrine: plans v. reality)
  • Christopher Carey (Red Ball Express)
  • David Brookins (28th Division, the Wiltz St. Nick)
  • Walter Zapotoczny (28th Division, Motivation to Fight).

This year, the museum’s collection will be part of the show. Instead of meeting in the lobby, we will meet in the more spacious Motor Pool, where we will be surrounded by the vehicles that several of our speakers will discuss.
