On January 12th, 1945, days after his press conference disaster claiming credit for saving Americans at the Battle of the Bulge, Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery demanded permanent command of two American armies—the US First and Ninth—totaling over 500,000 men for his "Great Northern Thrust" into Germany.
Drawing on National WWII Museum records, Bradley's memoir "A General's Life," and SHAEF command documents, this documentary reveals Eisenhower's calculated compromise: Montgomery could keep ONE American army (the Ninth) for the Rhine crossing only—then it would return to American command. When Montgomery tried to exploit this temporary arrangement to retain the Ninth Army permanently after Operation Plunder, Eisenhower stripped it away on April 4, 1945, reducing Montgomery to commanding only British and Canadian forces for the war's final month—ending British strategic influence and proving that even with American strength, Montgomery's methodical approach couldn't match Patton's mobile warfare.
