December 1944. The Ardennes burned under one of the most brutal offensives of World War 2. Amid the chaos of the Battle of the Bulge, a 19-year-old private named Francis Sherman Currey stood at a bridge outside Malmedy, facing advancing Waffen-SS tanks and infantry. Outnumbered, outgunned, and alone, Currey’s actions would defy logic and turn the tide of a critical engagement. What happened on that frozen Belgian road shocked both his comrades and his enemies, earning him a reputation that would follow him for the rest of his life. This is the story of how Francis Sherman Currey became the scariest soldier of WW2.
