French Language book. On December 12, 1944, Field Marshal Model, commander of Army Group B, asked Colonel von der Heydte if his airborne operation had a 10% chance of success. Von der Heydte replied in the affirmative, and Model added that the Ardennes Offensive also had no more than a 10% chance of success. This 10% chance had been mentioned before the German offensive of May 1940, which was a crushing victory for the Reich's armies. But since then, they have been exhausted. Drawing on little-known documents and meticulous study, the author highlights the flaws that ultimately completely disrupted the German offensive apparatus, the stifling of the offensive, and its collapse. A precise dismantling that will surprise the reader, supported by archives, of theses which have nevertheless been current since the end of the fighting, showing that these famous "10% chance", in the end, neither the Third Reich nor Model had them any more.
