Operation Market Garden .. Attacking the Bridges
We left Paris this morning by high speed rail to Brussels. From there we boarded the bus for the trip to Arnhem, Holland by way of the very important and strategic bridges of Operation Market Garden. Here's a picture of an old Catholic Church, St Petrus Kerk, from which the Easy Company Commander, 2nd Bn 506 Reg, 101st Airborne provided command and control as the company blockaded both ends of the village square from German troop and tank attacks. The Company was fresh from helping capture the bridge at Einhoven.
