The Battle of the Bulge should not be on the list at all...the Germans had no chance of success and were virtually finished by the time they launched Hitlers ill conceived last gamble.
Stalingrad was a turning point but did not put the nails in the German coffin in the East...Kursk did.
The German failure to take Moscow was in the long run the fatal mistake. Instead of moving on the Southern front towards Stalingrad the Germans should have renewed their attempt to take Moscow. FOr one reason only...Moscow is the Rail and transportation hub of Russia...all road leads through Moscow.
