For days groups of heavy planes flew over Arnhem for rehersals for the big day Saturday the 21th of 2019. Friday evening thousands of Dutch, British, Polish, American, German and other people were in Arnhem commemorating that 75 years ago Market Garden took place.
Can you imagine that all these old American and Canadian military vehicles are being maintained by Dutch 'Keep em rolling' organisation people? We will always be greatful to our British, Polish, American, Canadian
The Netherlands was liberated by Canadian forces, British infantry divisions, the British I Corps, the 1st Polish Armoured Division, American, Belgian, Dutch and Czechoslovak troops. Unfortunately Market Garden was a faillure, but still we thank the British, Polish, American and other soldiers and officers who made an attempt to liberate this part of the Netherlands during Market Garden. In Arnhem not only German and Austrian Waffen-SS men fought but also Dutch Waffen-SS men. Some knew the Arnhem environment very well, because they were Arnhem men or boys or men and boys from Gelderland. They fought in their own environment, their own neighbourhood. That is a fact.
