Arnhem 75th Anniversary

Operation Market Garden was General Bernard Montgomery’s plan to try and end the war by Christmas with a bold advance from Belgium into Holland with ground forces, and airborne troops from America, Britain and Poland being dropped to take and hold the key bridges en-route. The furthest bridge at Arnhem was captured by the Airborne, but ground troops never made it there: it became forever a Bridge Too Far.
